Everyone knows that Italy is a gastronomic powerhouse and an icon of global culinary culture. And no wonder - when you have such high-quality food as the Italians have, it's hard to go wrong in your kitchen. The good news is that even in Warsaw, you can get precisely the same products that the Italians buy at their local markets. Piccola Italia and Mediterraneo are for, a delicatessen placed in Warsaw Breweries, which opened its doors at the beginning of the calendar summer.
Not everyone knows that almost 25% of all Italians who have permanently settled in Poland live in Warsaw. Perhaps the fact that one of the districts of the capital is called... Włochy (Italy in English). It's hard to tell whether this neither particularly southern nor sunny district is a local "Little Italy" for Italian ex-pats. However, it is easy to guess that the gap of the homeland in the micro-grocery segment for the native Italians is filled by such places in Warsaw as Piccola Italia and Mediterraneo. Even if a chain celebrates an "Italian week" several times a year, nowhere else can you find so many excellent and originally Italian food products here?
What exactly are they talking about? They have over 2500 unique specialties imported directly from 160 most essential producers - mainly from sunny Italy, but not only because you will also find special delicacies from Greece or Spain.
Italian coffee is not only Lavazza. You can find out about it in Piccola Italia, which sells coffees, both ground and grainy, practically unavailable in any other store in our city.

The selection of products is not random. Every year Piccola Italia's purchasing and importing team participates in dozens of foreign fairs, workshops, and other food events, visit production plants and vineyards, holds hundreds of meetings with producers, follows the trends, and negotiates the best prices. This allows them to offer truly unique and tasty products at moderate prices, comparable to the costs of the same products in the countries from which they are imported to us. Piccola Italia and Mediterraneo, in addition to the highest quality, focuses on natural products made by traditional methods, without preservatives. The number of whole-grain, gluten-free, BIO, organic, and vegan products is constantly growing.
A section of fresh products is also very well developed: cheese, cold cuts (also gluten-free), yogurts, and ready-made sauces, which will undoubtedly go well with pasta sold here. There are also more and more frozen products, and soon Piccola Italia and Mediterraneo in Warsaw Breweries will be enriched with a wine-bar section.
Do the people of Warsaw like Piccola Italia and Mediterraneo? The best evidence of that is that the owner negligently admits that there is no need to promote himself on the Internet or even on Facebook. The business is booming because good quality at a reasonable price does not require special advertising efforts.
