DEANDELUCA.COM.SG | HOLIDAY CATALOGUE 2012
History George Bernard Shaw once wrote, “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.” It was this love that guided Giorgio DeLuca, a school teacher turned cheese merchant, and Joel Dean, a business manager at a publisher, to create a place that would offer customers a sumptuous celebration of food and a venue to experience all of the pleasures that cooking and eating can bring. The original DEAN & DELUCA opened for business in September 1977 in SoHo, then an edgy artist and warehouse district in lower Manhattan, at the corner of Prince and Greene streets. The original store was designed to evoke a turn of the century food department, replete with ceiling fans spinning over a vast array of products that lined the soaring white walls of this enchanted emporium.
