In honor of #worldpastaday yesterday, we are highlighting Pastosa Ravioli, a third-generation family-owned ravioli & fresh #pasta 🍝 & Italian specialty 🇮🇹 shop.

@pastosaravioli was founded in 1966 in Brooklyn by Anthony Ajello selling fresh mozzarella and #ravioli but as the popularity of the shop grew, it expanded its offerings and now has multiple locations in both New York and New Jersey. 

Photo of this Staten Island location appears as a 2-page spread (this is only a section of the ship) in our book “Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York”.
