On the other corner from the more famous di palo's but I spent one summer during grade school eating nothing but their fresh baked rosemary, mozzarella and prosciutto cubes bread. It was incredible. I don't see that bread anymore but it is now a tourist stop for Europeans with many Italian imports and a deli counter.

Alleva Dairy is the oldest Italian cheese shop in America. Their mozzarella (with a bit of prosciutto) is simply divine and it is worth the trip alone.

Not as good as Di Palo's but it maintains the atmosphere from the old days intact with white tiles and grumpy tellers.
