The Italian Deli

An Italian deli, short for delicatessen, is a food shop specializing in Italian foods. It typically offers a variety of ingredients and prepared foods such as cured meats (like salami and prosciutto), cheeses, olives, fresh bread, and sauces. Customers can purchase items to take home or often enjoy sandwiches made from these ingredients on-site. Italian delis are known for their authentic flavors and artisanal products, making them popular spots for both locals and visitors seeking traditional Italian cuisine and gourmet everyday items.
