Sammies on Arizmendi baguette - warmed at 350 and lightly buttered

lucca deli:
Calabrese salami
head cheese

potato salad

with expensive ($15+ per pound) meats like these, I don’t want to add condiments like vinegar or chili sauce or sliced pickles or cheese. Yet I do love mixed sandwiches. It’s so complicated for me.

Well it’s not cheese per se.

Compared to mortadela, it's pretty tame. :)

Pepperoni pizza from Doppio, Kuwait City - a bizarre place to find as it was hidden on an upper floor of a joint office-mall complex - I was the only guest, but the pizza had quite good flavor (though, the crust was a tad soft but had nice taste)

Went back to Doppio - still soft, still yummy

Pizza, wings, and whiskey - I just had Laphroig 10-year. I gifted the Abasolo to the host. Next time for him I’ll probably just bring beer because he has a lot of whiskey at this point!

Indeed.

"finely hashed or ground cured pork, which incorporates at least 15% small cubes of pork fat (principally the hard fat from the neck of the pig). It is traditionally flavoured with peppercorns, but modern versions can also contain pistachios or, less commonly, myrtle berries."
