Your truffle spaghetti is out of this world yummy, with huge chunks of shaved truffle, Your spicy tomato sauce is also one of my favorites. Also, your panzerotti in cream sauce.

They have a wide selection of mustards and offer complementary samples. The only downside is that, after purchasing several jars, we walked to the near Christmas market and found the exact same products we had just bought at a much lower price.
