01Tuscan / Jordaan
Pane e Olio Tuscan pantry
Oude Leliestraat 6, Jordaan · €€
A Tuscan-focused deli in a side street of the Jordaan that stocks the things you should bring back from Italy but often can’t: good extra-virgin olive oil from Tuscan producers, aged balsamic, a solid pasta selection, canned fish, and a small but well-chosen wine shelf. The owner is knowledgeable and not shy about pointing you toward what is worth buying. A useful stop before cooking a proper Italian dinner at home, or for gifts that will actually be used.

02Italian / De Pijp
Alberto Pozzetto Italian imports
Eerste van der Helststraat 57, De Pijp · €€
A De Pijp corner shop stocking Italian pantry goods - pasta, olive oil, canned goods, some cheeses - from a small, well-chosen selection of imported products. Run by the Pozzetto family, who know what they are picking. A reliable neighbourhood stop when you are in the Albert Cuyp area and need something to cook with or bring home.

03Italian / Oost
Gallizia cheese & wine
Javastraat 67, Oost · €€
A family-run Italian deli on the Javastraat in Amsterdam Oost, started by Tom Gallizia as a wine importer and now a proper delicatessen: Italian cheeses, cured meats, fresh pasta, dried goods, and a well-chosen wine selection. You can sit down for an espresso or pick up a made-to-order sandwich from the deli counter. If you are serious about what goes in the shopping bag, Oost is an easy destination to justify - and the bar next door is a natural stop after.
