Food & Wine
Parma has plenty of full-sized supermarkets where you can get everything you need to stock your kitchen. As mentioned on our food page, Esselunga, Conad and Lidl all have modest international food sections along with plenty of italian staples. Supermarkets also stock wine and liquor, but the selection is not always very large. Here we give you some suggestions for local specialty shops.
