The very hospitable, enthusiastic Italian owner, Valerio, greets visitors with a friendly "Ciao!" when they walk into this shop. Valerio grew up among vineyards and olive trees, turning him into a wine-making expert and olive tree guru. This knowledge in turn enabled him to open a business importing top-quality red/white wines and olive oils. This small space is filled with tables and chairs he made himself, as well as over 20 kinds of Italian wines, with prices ranging between hundreds and thousands of NT dollars. There are also Italian spices, Italian truffle sauce, pasta noodles, and extra virgin olive oil for sale. As Valerio aims to help his customers dine healthier, he also periodically organizes gatherings to demonstrate various Italian cooking methods and teach participants know how to retain original flavors and ensure good-quality ingredients.
