About
The Italian version of the delicatessen is the salumeria, which means "cured meat shop". The origins of the salumeria date back to the ancient Romans, who first developed curing methods out of practical necessity. Simply using air, salt, and smoke to preserve meats, long before refrigeration was an option, the Italians elevated curing to an art form. Combinations of curing techniques and spices, combined with regionally unique traditions resulted in an infinite variety of "salumi", cured meats. And let's not forget the ancient culinary relationship between the pig and yet another food which the Italians have mastered and made their own - cheese. We invite you to join us in our love of authentic Italian food, both through our Salumeria and through our menu, which uses all of these cured meats and cheese extensively.
