Conte Di Savoia - Review - University Village - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Conte Di Savoia is an Italian grocery store in University Village that’s been around since 1948, where you can stock up on all sorts of cheeses, salumi, and wine. That makes it the perfect place to raid for your next picnic or dinner party, but the real draws are sandwiches like a meatball sub or caprese panini. The cold subs are especially well-constructed and a good alternative to the ones from the Jersey Mike’s across the street. And while this shop looks its age with old-school checkerboard floors, a pressed tin ceiling, and a few retro tables, the better move is to take advantage of 21st-century advancements and order ahead to get your sandwich to go and avoid the long deli counter lines at lunch. photo credit: Veda Kilaru" - Veda Kilaru
