I grew up as a proud Italian in the 70s & 80s. I lived in BensonHurst down the block from joe pisa pork store another amazing gem but unfortunately he closed. My parents would go in snow storms around Christmas to buy their boxed ravioli with white string around the box. They would also buy their pre made pizza crust & pizza dough. I was 5yrs old making pizza with there pre made pizza crust,fresh mozzarella,capers & don pepino pizza sauce. What memories it was. As a kid i could eat a whole dozen ravioli by myself. They are the king when it comes to ravioli there is not a place i lived that can come close to there delicious everything they sold. Pastosa Ravioli is #1 I live in horrible Indiana now so there is no Italian food out here unfortunately. Definitely miss this old ravioli gem it was a part of my childhood memories!! Glad they stood in business after all these years & Good luck...

Bring back the...
