The Volpi Jabberwocky
A little cocktail history lesson. Back in the 1920s in London’s very fancy Savoy Hotel, a British-born and American-trained bartender was shaking up the cocktail scene. Harry Craddock became famous for his potations, and they landed in an incredibly cool Art Deco book, The Savoy Cocktail Book. The cocktail is named after the Lewis Carroll poem from Through the Looking Glass – a delightful representation of literary nonsense. We don’t think it’s nonsense at all. We think it’s quite sensible to shake one of these up right now. The salami garnish, well, now that might seem like nonsense, but wait ’til you try it. You might chortle in joy.
Pancetta, Egg and Genoa-Pimento Cheese Sandwich
There are few things more classically American than a good breakfast sandwich. Squishy roll, gooey egg, crispy pork product, something cheesy, a little kick of something – you don’t even need to be hungover to appreciate the way they balance each other and deliver some lip-smacking goodness. We amped up a traditional pimento cheese spread with some Genoa salame (oh yes, we did) that adds a salty punch. Knowing that the pancetta, egg and genoa-pimento cheese sandwich exists makes it easy to have just one more the night before.

Affogato with Candied Sopressata
Keep afloat. Don’t drown. That’s what affogato translates to. Though it would be a good way to go, melting into a strong shot of espresso, chewing on a few candied salame bits. Enjoyed as a dessert or afternoon pick-me-up, affogato with candied Sopressata is transcendental either way. Where’s that ice cream scoop?
Baked Goat Cheese Wrapped in Grape Leaves
Stuffing grape leaves with all sorts of tasty bits is as old as old can get. It’s first-century Mediterranean fare that was (and still is) part of a mezze assortment. We borrowed that idea to bake up some sinfully soft cheese to serve with an assortment of our salami. Good things never go out of style.
