At that time, there were few places on the strip that were suited to the public, most were wholesalers. Several used sawdust to keep their floors dry. Our regular routine always began at Penn Mac, then Parma Sausage, and last Robert Wholey's where we'd often eat a fish sandwich standing in front of the fish tanks before heading home. If I recall correctly the business closed at noon on Saturdays,so we usually left around lunchtime. In the winter, we'd eat in the car tearing apart fresh Italian bread, and eating it with the cheeses and meats. Whenever I go home to PA, I visit here. Although it no longer has the same character, this place still brings back warm memories and I am so thankful they remain in business. A treasure.Momma Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03661072239173927640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5804056489806789501.post-62932513447478610342022-02-12T12:28:22.932-05:002022-02-12T12:28:22.932-05:00Great Italian goodies!
