Pulcinella s Italian Restaurant Pulcinella represents Naples and the Napolitano spirit of life. He is known for his costume of white and a simple black mask. As legend has it, Pulcinella avoided work and trouble through his disguise. While working in the pizzeria, he was more of an entertainer than a worker. Pulcinella would plat and dance around, but when the ax fell, he would hide in the flour bin escaping the troubles of life. For this reason, Pulcinella is a true representative of the child in us all. The spirit of happiness is Pulcinella.
