Gotcha Dov.... They don't only sell pork. The specialize in pork, but also sell meats and goodies. I found a very similar store in Rome near the spanish steps.
Ahhh, if the folks on the tour only knew just how close they were to culinary heaven.... Aliotta Bakery, Pastosa home made pastas & ravioli's, moretti's bread & Landi's pork store.
I'm getting famished just thinking about it. Thank goodness I'll be there this weekend!

They were well fed and happy.
Next year, if you want, you can have some talk time while I sit down and relax.

ljp, I can't believe there's another way to eat a black and white.

On the way out I saw black & whites by the register and grabbed a couple of those (one for me, one for the boss (waiting in the cab)). My first black & white from NY, yum! Next trip I"ll have to get them in Brooklyn

Jerrie and Magic trying to decide.

Very pleasant day.
Sorry we missed your Do Catman. We will try for next year. Actually, we will be in NYC for my birthday and my annual Stage Deli pastrami reuben (the only red meat I eat all year long) in early June if you would care to join us.
