Toast to Mom in Bronx Little Italy with Various Offerings and Specialty Menus

On behalf of The Belmont Business Improvement District (BID) and in advance of Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 9, I wanted to share some offerings in Bronx Little Italy, which features New York City’s best, authentic Italian restaurants, butchers, bakers, fish markets, delicatessens, pastry shops, artisan shops, and specialty stores.

The neighborhood invites locals and visitors to safely celebrate Mother’s Day timed with the return of the popular “Piazza di Belmont,” piazza-style al fresco dining plan that starts on Friday night, April 30, and will be open weekend nights. Treat mom to authentic Italian cuisine in a glorious, European-style open-air outdoor atmosphere.
