Craving some good Italian food? Then New York's Little Italy neighborhood is the place to be! Here you can enjoy an affordable plate of pasta or risotto with the perfect tiramisu afterward.

This small neighborhood in southern Manhattan is still home to many Italians. These former Italian immigrants brought all their culinary skills and fantastic culture to this part of NYC. Stroll through the many shops and end the day in a cozy café nearby.

If you're in New York in September, I definitely recommend attending the ten-day Feast of San Gennaro. Little Italy is also my favorite neighborhood for picking up tasty treats at the deli for a picnic in the park. This Little Italy New York Guide lists the must-see spots.
