New food market, beer and wine shop, Italy Bottega, coming to St. Petersburg

A new food market, wine and beer shop called Italy Bottega is coming to St. Petersburg. The shop will be stationed at 1045 Central Ave., across the street from Kalamazoo Olive Company. 

Not much has been shared on Italy Bottega's social media or website other than language marketing the shop as hawking "authentic Italian food products, excellent Italian wine, and artisanal Italian beers." The only photos shared so far on Italy Bottega Facebook look to be stock photos of charcuterie boards and a fat selection of cheeses. Will we have another Mazzaro's in the 'Burg? 

More details to come once an official opening date is announced.
