The Details: The Produce
Farmers Market Deli opened
in October 2010 as a conve-
nience to the public. Owners
Louie and Janice saw a need
for a local grocer in their com-
munity and set out to give their
quaint business a 9th Street
(Italian Market) feel. The mar-
ket boasts a variety of Italian
specialties like spices, nuts,
fresh produce and imported
delicacies. It even has a lottery
machine. Its deli carries a full
line of Dietz & Watson products
as well as an assortment of Ital-
ian cheeses. Former Cellinis
employee Frieda joined the
team when Cellinis a popular
Italian specialty store closed.
She now creates her sought-
after signature gift baskets in a
variety of selections that cater
to the customers desires!

The Details: In the early
1900s, Joseph L. Giunta and
Anthony Bonuomo ran two
competing butcher shops
across the street from one an-
other in the famous 9th Street
Italian Market. Who knew that
one day, these families would
unite and begin what grandson
Charles Giunta calls a butcher
shop dynasty? In 1982, David
ONeil was working for the
Reading Terminal Market
Company and invited Charles
to relocate his business there.
Joining hundreds of gourmet
food shops, restaurants and
specialty vendors, Giuntas
soon became one of Reading
Terminals most popular spots
helping to restore this histori-
cal City landmark to its original
grandeur. Visit Giuntas for a
custom cut of a large variety
of all natural meats, which are
hormone and antibiotic-free.
This Old World butcher shop
is renown for its customer
service, grade-A quality, prime-
cut meats, pre-seasoned
specialties and friendly, can-do
service.

eateries get their just desserts
The Details: Forty-ve
years ago, Frank and Flora
DAquilante started cooking
for their South Philadelphia
neighbors from the kitchen
of their home. Their authentic
Italian recipes soon became
the rave of the neighborhood
and this family-owned business
quickly took root, rst as a lo-
cal delicatessen and nally, as
a well-known catering facility.
The DAquilantes son Carmen
opened the familys rst catering
Hall Swan Caterers in the
heart of the neighborhood at
15th & Shunk. In 1986, he cut
the ribbon on a second facility
- the grandiose Waterfall Room
on Water Street near Front &
Snyder. This full-sized banquet
facility introduced clients to one
of the citys nest venues, featur-
ing the same authentic recipes
that made Swan famous, as well
as ample free parking. From
ne dining and entertainment
to popular themed party plan-
ning, DAquilante and his team
continue to meet the needs of
an ever-growing client list. The
most important aspect of his
business? The food, of course!
His affordable menu suits an
array of taste buds from tangy to
temperate, Carving Stations to
Vegan delights. And always true
to his familys legacy, Swan Ca-
terers and The Waterfall Room
serve authentic Italian dishes
that have delighted guests for
almost a half-century.
