Calling all foodies! As the Italians say, qui si mangia bene–here, we eat well! Whether you live in the Big Apple or are traveling in from afar, taking a trip to Mulberry Street to eat is a must. NYC’s Little Italy is steaming hot with savory Italian cuisine, and centuries-old recipes straight from Nonna’s cookbook.
In the late 1800s, Italians emigrated to the United States in droves and stuck together in a tight-knit, but large, cultural community that we’d soon call Little Italy. Now, just three blocks-wide off of Mulberry Street, Little Italy is a small-but-mighty reminder of the Italian heritage that built the neighborhood, with food remaining as the strongest fixture.
