Little Italy Gourmet Market & Pizza
::
Last night we had takeout from Little Italy Gourmet Market & Pizza and as always it was great. They seem to do a great business over there considering how busy it was at 7:30 pm on a Friday. I had the italian cold cut combination sub and my wife got the veal parm sub. How can you go wrong with capicola, I ask? My favorite part about their sandwiches is their bread. A little sign behind the counter says that it's freshly made everyday, maybe that's why I like it so much. Their sub and hard rolls have a good crust on them that I'm crazy for.

Although I didn't have it last night, Little Italy's pizza is also wonderful. It is nice and thin with a crispy crust like a real pizza should be. Don't get me started on thick crust or greasy pan cooked pizza. That stuff in Chicago is rightly called "pie" because it is in now way pizza. Little Italy's pizza is cooked in a brick oven right on the stone, no pans for these folks.

Over the few years they've been open I've sampled many of their menu items. The stuffed bread is good and is so big, it makes for a nice breakfast the next day. I've never had them before trying them at Little Italy but their arancini (rice balls) and potato croquets are delightful. They also bottle their own sauce that it quite good. I'm partial to the one with little bits of prosciutto in it. I could probably eat it with spoon right out of the jar.

In doing my "research" for this post (simply googling their name) I stumbled upon their website. They offer online ordering! I've never seen a local business do that, so that's cool. I may try it next time.
