Looks like John and Kendall Antonelli are getting close to opening their Hyde Park cheese shop. Coolers and counters are in. The interior design is being handled by Joel Mozersky (Uchi, La Condessa, The Belmont).
Along with the cheese, honey and select beer and wine, they will have a large selection of cured meats. Because of issues with City and State permitting, most of our local Charcuterie makers don’t do cured meats. So, Antonelli’s should be a great source. Bring on the Hot Soppressata and Peperone!
Antonelli’s Cheese Shop : 4220 Duval Street Austin, TX : Opening Mid February
I am ridiculously excited about this store opening. Thanks for keeping us up to date.
Really looking forward to checking it out. So I was right on the name, Joel Mozersky, the designer. Cool deal. My buddy James has his google chat status as “eating a block of cheese,” a la George Costanza. Can’t beat that.
