There’s something about corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss, and toasted rye that hits different when you’ve got a little sun on your face and sand still on your feet. While Naples is best known for fresh seafood, vacationers looking for deli-style comfort will be happy to know the city does Reubens just as well as grouper sandwiches.
