Zenari's, Edmonton

Located downtown in the Manulife Building, this is a truly unique combination kitchenware shop, specialty Italian grocery store and restaurant. Zenari's is a bustling, order-at-the-counter Italian deli restaurant, decorated with colourful murals and huge posters of Italy. On the board behind the counter, the offerings include pastas, soups, salads, and savoury breads like crostini, foccaccia, and bruschetta. There is also a cozy little wine bar where you can enjoy your meal with beer or wine. Across the street is Zenari's On 1st, a charming restaurant run by the same owner.
