Pallucca and Sons Market was started in 1909 by Attillo Pallucca. Attillo, a native of Italy, started the store with Enrico Moriconi. Attillo eventually took over the entire store and in 1954 he sold the store to his son, Joe Pallucca. In 1959, Joe’s son, Dick, took over the store. Dick passed away in 2013 and the store sold to the current owners, Ethan and Alyssa Edwards, in 2014. After all these years, despite ownership changes, it’s still Palluca’s great recipes.
