One of the last reminders of the Little Italy that migrated from Clerkenwell to Soho. The original delicatessen opened in 1944, two years before the nearby Bar Italia and I Camisa that opened in 1961. Now it has pistachio designer stripes and cute New York boxes, the iconography extends to a small chain of trattoria imitating others like Carluccio and Spaghetti House from retail to restaurant. But the original store has fresh pasta daily which sets down a marker for the whole group, plus sauces, lines of dried pasta and rival Rummo pastas or bottarga at £17 for 100grams. It is a focused selection, now rivaled by others but with its own charm and personal service.
