Description:
In this beautiful book, food and lifestyle expert Ann Volkwein takes the reader on a tour of Arthur Avenue, in the heart of the Bronx's most celebrated Italian-American community. While Manhattan's Little Italy has become a popular tourist destination, Arthur Avenue has remained virtually unchanged since the first Italian immigrants arrived there over a hundred years ago. Today, Arthur Avenue is one of New York's most cherished ethnic neighborhoods, with culinary and cultural delights waiting to be discovered. In this charming book, the residents of this vibrant community share the magic that has kept their families there for decades.
Filled with dozens of black and white and color photos, this cookbook includes old-world Italian recipes from the mouths of local residents and their world-famous restaurants.
