Luciano Di Leonardo, owner of this small but very well-stocked dairy, is one of the city’s leading cheese authorities. With good reason: this has always been his job and thanks to his exceptional curiosity, which still has him going round fairs and events, partly in pursuit of small producers, he has built up a huge culture on the subject, and this allows him to offer customers precious advice. The glass counter offers a display of rare charcuterie and cheese, among which limited-production regional specialities such as casizolu di Santu Lussurgiu cheese, pitina, a smoked pork salume from Friuli, or coscio, leg of prosciutto from semi-wild Tuscan pigs. Every month sees the arrival of new products, Luciano has come across somewhere, in Italy or elsewhere in the world and his shop is a veritable “playground” for lovers of the genre.
