Cornucopia Specialty Food Market has reopened today at 8102 Norfolk Avenue in downtown Bethesda. The shop was temporarily closed due to the owner having to make an unexpected trip to Italy. Cornucopia sells fresh-prepared Italian foods, as well as a wide variety of groceries and goods from Italy. One of the hidden gems of the Woodmont Triangle.
I had no idea that he returns to Italy, since the nice proprietor is Egyptian I always assumed that he went back home to the middle East on his jaunts. That place is definitely a pillar and a sight for sore eyes in this community!
ReplyDeleteYay! Mangia! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe owner isn’t all that knowledgeable about Sicily and Sicilian products. The owner is Egyptian and has a seller in Sicily he buys from. Given what’s happening, he probably returned to Egypt. His store is still a find.
