When many think of Little Italy, they think of the Little Italy located on Mulberry Street in Manhattan. Yet Manhattan’s Little Italy isn’t the only one in the five boroughs. Arthur Avenue, located in the Belmont section of the Bronx, is its competition. The lesser known Little Italy in the Bronx has many delis, meat and fish markets, and fresh pasta shops. Here are six places to check out on Arthur Avenue:

1. Mike’s Deli

Located in the indoor market place on Arthur Avenue, Mike’s Deli offers various cheeses, cold cuts, sandwiches, olive oils, olives, and other Italian delicacies. Their eggplant parmigiana was even featured on Bobby Flay’s Throwdown!

Located at: 2344 Arthur Avenue Bronx, NY http://www.arthuravenue.com/

2. Teitel Brothers

Like Mike’s Deli, Teitel Brothers is also a classic Italian deli which has parmigiana cheese, prosciutto, imported olive oils, canned tomatoes, aged vinegar, and dried and fresh sausage, just to name a few. They have been in business for over 100 years and have some of the best sausage and cheeses you can find.

3. Casa Della Mozzarella

Just like Mike’s Deli and Teitel Brothers, Casa Della Mozzarella is another classic Italian deli. Its name translates literally to “House of the Mozzarella” and if you could guess by the name, is known for its fresh mozzarella cheese. However, Casa Della Mozzarella also has other types of cheese, various deli meats, and other Italian specialties.

Located at: 604 E 187th St, Bronx, NY

4. Borgatti’s Ravioli and Egg Noodles

In business since 1935, Borgatti’s offers a variety of fresh pasta. These include classics like ricotta ravioli, manicotti, and various types of pasta to new favorites like pumpkin ravioli, carrot pasta, and whole wheat spinach pasta. All of the options are fantastic, but be sure to try the classic ricotta ravioli!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
