Specialised marts are fast becoming the norm here - if you've never browsed through the quirky and unusual items in a Japanese grocery store, you're really missing out - and Cibo is undoubtedly one of the best we have.

If you're a nonna at heart, their extensive range of quality basics to more artisanal ingredients and drinks imported straight from Italy, will have you in raptures of joy. Neatly displayed in the modern store, the open wood and metal shelves stand out against the white exposed brick walls, and invite you to browse the aisles stocked with things you'd never find in our general supermarkets.

But as all good nonnas know, nothing beats actually trying the products. The good news is - you won't have to go far! Cibo cannily provides a menu of handmade dishes like Lasagna and Ravioli Porcini & Tartufo (homemade egg pasta stuffed with porcini and truffle in creamy sauce), appetisers like Tagliere di Addettati (a selection of cold cuts) and Puccia, their own special sourdough sandwich stuffed with Italian special varieties, as well as a long list of pizzas. If you're simply peckish, their fresh cheeses and wines make for a good snack as well.

Perhaps this really is your first foray into specialised marts. In which case, Cibo's friendly staff, attractive mix of traditionally Italian items, modern grocer décor, and unpretentious Italian classics, will have you glad to say 'Ciao'. (Jan 2016)
