Steve Dolinsky (the Hungry Hound), ABC 7's lifestyle and food reporter.

"Naples native Nella Grassano cut her crusts, so to speak, at Spacca Napoli. I never loved their soupy middle section, but her new namesake in Lincoln Park (Pizzeria da Nella Cucina Napoletana) is producing very good pies using imported cheeses and firing them in a brick beehive oven fueled by fire. She keeps her ingredients simple and doesn’t use inferior products. Her crusts could use a tad more char, but that’s just quibbling."
Pizzeria da Nella Cucina Napoletana, 1443 West Fullerton Avenue (between Greenview and Janssen Avenues), 773-281-6600.
