Big Nick Cavalieri, the former owner of Nick’s Discount Store at 1669 Bath Avenue, got in touch to tell us that he’s opened a new business – Neighborhood Guys Bagels Deli & Grocery at 1656 Bath Avenue.

We wrote about Cavalieri back in late 2011, after the discount store was featured in the New York Times for [Nick’s ability to connect with customers ](/making-people-feel-welcome-one-customer-at-a-time/)regardless of the changing demographics. Just a month later, in January 2012, he [sold the discount store after 35 years](/big-nick-sells-discount-store-to-new-owners/), attributing it to… changing demographics.

But Big Nick is back, and now he’s slinging some chicken parm – and, quite frankly, wherever you may hail from, chicken parm is speaking your language.

Check out the new store and let us know how it is!
