Three for 3: Three meals for a lucky new year

Le Colonial Naples

457 5th Avenue S., Naples – 239-372-9700

This fine dining establishment is the ideal setting for setting the tone of a lucky, prosperous New Year. The meal is to be rife with foods that represent prosperity, longevity and perseverance. The white linen topped tables, and overhanging palms, create a space that is ideal for nestling in and experiencing sophisticated flavors. Pork is traditionally considered symbolic of progress. Why not start with an appetizer of glazed pork ribs or even pan seared dumplings. Dumplings represent prosperity as their plump form resembles an abundant bag of coins. This restaurant proudly offers authentic Vietnamese cuisine, and in keeping with the theme of longevity, Le Colonial’s Hanoi beef noodle soup is generously embodied by Wagyu oxtail broth, scallions, cilantro, beef tenderloin, and rice noodles – long noodles are symbolic of a long life. The main menu tempts diners with such delicacies as a crispy red snapper garnished with peppers, scallions, crisply garlic and dill or even chargrilled Japanese eggplant. With so many authentic options, your dining experience is sure to bring prosperity for 2026! Reservations are available, and suggested, up to 30 days in advance…
