Two days spent along Arthur Avenue...
Vibe: definite appeal, less tourists than Little Italy
Palombo Pastry - where the real Italians go to sip espresso
Assorted pastries
Cosenza's - freshly shucked on the street
$1 clams (opt for littleneck clams; cherrystones too big and chewy) $2.50 oysters
Full Moon - chalk full of Fordham co-eds; exceptionally good calzone, but forgettable pizza
Rigelotto's - Neapolitan style restaurant with cheesy murals painted everywhere, but surprisingly good food that tasted better the day after
Bruschetta
Eggplant Parmigiana
Chicken Scarpariello (chicken with Italian sausages)
Pasta Carbonnara
Fresh breads
Cheese mongers
The butcher
Pastry shoppe
