Fiorello La Guardia put the pushcart vendors under a roof in 1940 and their grandchildren are still behind the counters: butchers, a pasta maker, cheese, a cigar roller, and a deli where the sandwiches are absurd.
This is the Italian neighborhood that Little Italy in Manhattan stopped being decades ago. It is a real one, and people shop here for dinner.
What to know
Closed Sundays and quiet late. Saturday morning is the full version. Cash helps.
