UK - London - Camisa delicatessan shop in Old Compton St.

A street portrait of a member of the Camisa family showing us a selection of parmasan cheese and home-made pasta in Old Compton Street, Soho, London. This long-established rustic Italian deli was opened by the Fratelli Camisi back in 1929, and this old Soho stalwart is well worth a visit if only for its fresh pasta and accompanying sauces - their pesto is particularly good - but that would be to miss out on the fabulous range of cheeses (pecorino, gorgonzola - both sweet and piccante - parmesan, mozzarella, ricotta), charcuterie (salamis, mortadella, parma ham), freshly marinated olives, vegetables (artichokes, peppers, aubergines, sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms) under oil, risotto rices, balsamic vinegars, cakes and biscuits, as well as a range of their own-label products.
