This delicatessen-cum-corner shop is a godsend if you are looking for picnic fodder or want to buy some gastronomic gifts to take home. While De Rossi boasts a superlative selection of fine wines, pasta and jars of delicacies, you can also pick up basic items such as a tube of toothpaste or a bar of soap.
