Ciao, Elisa
I stopped by Via Elisa after lunch today to start stocking up on pastas to freeze, and I felt angry with myself afterward for not giving this store business since I’ve been back in Atlanta. Via Elisa's last day is tomorrow. I talked briefly with owner Elisa Gambino, who says she’s been flabbergasted by the amount of business she’s had in the last week. I’m not. Isn’t this how we often roll in Atlanta? We know good businesses like Via Elisa exist, but times are tight and we let them fall off the radar. We believe these kinds of shops will always be around, and we’re shocked when one of them announces that it’s closing—and then we bum rush the place in its final days.
