"If you spend time in Soho, you might already know about Lucia Pizza's excellent vodka sauce and creamed spinach slices. But behind its Canal Street location is Lucia Alimentari, a cafe-by-day, wine-bar-by-night from the same team. In the afternoon, stop by for a latte, a focaccia sandwich, and a jar of fancy Italian tomatoes. In the evenings, things get even better. They slide personal-sized pies from the slice shop kitchen through a window into the candlelit alimentari and keep bottles of wine cool in ice-filled tomato tins. Come for a pizza party, and round out your order with a caesar salad and some cold ricotta with orange blossom honey." - willa moore, bryan kim, kenny yang, carina finn koeppicus
