From old-school corner deli to modern emporium, the Rossi family now have even more to bring to our tables with the Rossi & Sons Alimentari, their new market/eatery in Eastdale Village. The new development, east of Adams Fairacre Farms on Route 44, is just four miles away from their original location, Rossi & Sons Rosticceria on Clover Street in Poughkeepsie.
Since opening their deli in 1979, the family has managed to satisfy a continuous line of hungry fans and regulars with their massive, mouthwatering sandwiches and other Italian favorites. However, a popular business doesn’t happen overnight. Originally from Parma, Italy—think Parmigiano Reggiano—and from a long line of farmers, Giovanni “Papa John” Rossi knew the ins and outs of good food.
