 | | The Manhattan Little Italy has dwindled to a mere cipher of what it once was, due to expansion from neighboring Chinatown, rising rents, etc. So much of what is left is really for the tourists, and the San Gennaro and San Antonio festivals. |
 | | I've never been there, however when I was in little Italy last May, my friend who was visiting Seattle was quite dissaapointed at La Luna's closing because of the meal he enjoyed there 10 years earlier. |
