Last month, one of our favorite sandwich shops, The Crosby Connection, lost its lease on all of its 45 square feet on Crosby street. But yesterday, the sandwiches - and salads - were available without missing a beat, just a few blocks removed at Parisi Bakery on Elizabeth Street between Houston and Bleecker. It's "Crosby at Parisi"!
Owner Joey Cramarossa is now working out of the front part of Parisi at 290 Elizabeth Street. He told us he's offering bigger sandwiches, because of the extra four blocks we're walking over (so the net caloric intake is the same!).
Joey also said that Sicilian-style pizza, which he's offered as samples to customers the past two days, will be on the menu soon ($2/slice; $17/tray). He likened the pizza to what L&B Spumoni Gardens offers.
