Park Deli Skateshop's owners, Valentine Leung and Michael Sclafani are young entrepreneurs and new parents who are holding it down by keeping their side jobs as a dress designer and window decorator.

    I just came across this place today. It's a nice shot, Michel and I chatted a bit. I'm going to buy a jar from there.
