Every single one of us love Italian restaurants, right? Well, if you decide to recreate classic Italian dishes at home, there will soon be an Italian specialty gourmet market that will provide you with the delicacies.

The store, named Cipollini, will open at 116-09 Queens Boulevard near 77th Avenue. Italian cheeses, such as the staple Parmigiano-Reggiano, will be sold along with tomotato sauces, various olive oils and balsamic vinegars.

Store owner Christine Principato also plans to have a cafe within Cipolloni, featuring sandwiches, salads and coffee from the Illy and Lavazza brands.
“If you are having friends over for dinner and you want to make something special, you [will be able to get] a special type of pasta, some truffle oil and a nice loaf of bread,” Principato, a resident in the area, told DNAinfo. “There really wasn’t anything like this.”
