Those Di Bruno Bros are alright!
Winding down our time at the Italian market, we decided to stop in and get some snacks for dinner, but it looked like the rest of Philly had the same idea based on the crowd inside!
Di Bruno Bros staff are top notch, not only explaining everything you could imagine with the thing you're pointing at behind the counter, but also in giving you great pairing advice if you want one thing to go with another.
We got the following things:
Blue cheese
Parmesan Cheese
liver pate
Prosciutto
Man this was some good stuff! Cheese is excellent, coming from "the house of cheese". The blue cheese was both creamy and had these little crunchy ends to it which made me smile every time I took a bite. The Parmesan was also fresh and really popped with flavor.
As for the meats, i'd never tried pate before Di Bruno Bros, but how delicious! The prosciutto wrapping the blue cheese was some of the best things we'd eaten in Philly.
Everything we sampled was fresh, and even if you weren't sure about a cheese or a cured meat, they'd happily slice a little off for you to try, and try we did. I really didn't taste anything I didn't like. The problem, it seems, was making a selection!
I didn't know what I was expecting when I walked in, but if I lived in the area, i'd be at Di Bruno Bros several times a month for snacks. If you're in the Italian market, or even if you're not (they have a website), check these Bros out!
