Rosa and her household hail from Southern New Jersey the place their delicatessen has been a hub for the Italian neighborhood for over 30 years. Rosa’s ardour for Italian deli’s has manifested itself in Southern California for the final eight years as one of many stars of the Feast of San Gennaro Hollywood.
Now Rosa has taken her Italian delicatessen expertise to the road with Rosa’s Bella Cucina meals truck. There’s nothing higher than the odor and tastes from Italian Deli’s! Rosa’s menu begins with a selecton of deli sandwiches (Bambini sliders or bigger Papa variations) served on garlic-toasted ciabattini. The “La Mamma Angelina” has imported Italian prosciutto, recent mozzarella and marinated sun-dried tomatoes. I favor the “Il Classico” with ham, Genoa salami, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes and served with Rosa’s roasted pepper unfold. Vegetarians will definitely find yourself craving the “Il Vegetariano” sandwich crammed with recent mozzarella, marinated eggplant, roasted pink peppers and marinated artichokes.
These wanting a sizzling sandwich won’t be disenchanted by Rosa’s “Polpette di Carne” also called a meat ball sandwich or the “Melanzane alla Parmigiana”, fried eggplant slices layered with recent mozzarella and lined with home made marinara sauce.
Rosa’s Bella Cucina “rounds” out the menu with Arancini – spicy Italian rice balls. The “Sicilian” is crammed with mozzarella, tomato meat sauce and peas whereas the “Spinaci” is crammed with recent mozzarella and spinich.
Though it isn’t obtainable day by day, for dessert Rosa presents “Zeppole”, the merchandise that made her well-known. Zeppole are mild deep fried dough balls topped with powdered sugar and crammed with custard, jelly, cannoli-style pasty cream or a mix of butter and honey. Shut watchers of “The Soprano’s” might have seen Zeppoles featured in a number of episodes.
Rosa serves Italian delicatessen favorites, provides some modern twists, and delivers a few of the freshest Italian deli fare in Southern California.
