Brooklyn's family bakery since 1973

Five years after coming to America from Torretta, a small town in Sicily, John Zito opened the Famous Rimini Pastry Shop on 69th Street and Bay Parkway in 1973.

He started at 18, washing dishes and working day and night beside old-world pastry chefs and bakers until he had their techniques and recipes down.

Everything is still made from scratch on the premises, with no preservatives, no artificial ingredients and no trans fat. People come from all over New York, New Jersey and Connecticut for it.

“If it’s not good enough for me, it’s not good enough for my customers.”
