"Mozzarella "I will find any excuse I can to go to Di Palo. Their food is wonderful. Their prices are ridiculous. They own the building and if you're buying mozzarella anyplace else, you're an idiot. I lived on Rivington Street in the Bowery in '70s and it was my go-to place. That was when all the old Italian moms still lived in the neighborhood. You'd go in there and people would be trading recipes. The thing about their mozzarella is that mozzarella should never be put in the refrigerator. It changes. Di Palo is the one place I know where you can get mozzarella that was made that day and has never been refrigerated. To just go in there, and especially if you get it when it's still warm, it is the most delicious thing. And I know it's not made with water buffalo milk—it's made with cow's milk—but it's still really delicious. And then you end up buying all the other things there. You go for the food, but you also just go to be there." - brennan carley
