You say “Salami” and I say “Salumi”…

My year long stay in Seattle is coming to end. I will be moving to Venice, CA in February to jump start the acting career at a full time basis (fingers crossed!). I’ve eaten at a lot of the Seattle “must try” spots and Salumi rounds out as my last one. I am kicking myself for having not tried it sooner.

Salumi is located in Pioneer Square which has a bunch of Seattle history. Of course the only real history I know it for is the “Singles” movie poster, but that’s just me…

Salumi is only open Tuesday – Friday for lunch hours. I never seem to be out at lunch so that’s a little disappointing which is why it took me so long to finally get in. Salumi is know for their cured meats, but you have the option of dining in for a hot meal instead of just ordering a bulk amount to go. The space itself is pretty cramped, I don’t think it’s the best place for a large party, but great for 2 people or ordering food to go. The sandwiches are made in front of you so you can basque in it’s fatty glory.

I ordered the hot porchetta sandwich on a ciabatta roll. I’ve always had a rough relationship with porchetta, sometimes it’s too fatty. I’m happy to report that Salumi’s porchetta is flavorful and succulent. There is fat but it’s the perfect amount, no gag reflex
happened here. They also added this amazing garlicy butter sauce which oozes out with the flavor of the pork and roasted green pepper. It also drips and the bread becomes the right amount moist but not soggy. It’s heaven and earns a “best of” for GOF. The best part? I have leftovers!

Actress and Founder of Girls on Food: I was born and raised in the suburbs of Sacramento, California. I grew up a typical “McDonald’s kid”. I was very picky about what I ate and refused to try new foods. No fun, I know. My Mom started taking me on trips to Europe when I was a teenager and that’s when my palate for finer foods began to develop. Some of my most memorable favorite meals include Veal Bolognese in Rome, Gyros in Athens, Paella in Lisbon and Duck L’Orange in Paris. While this helped me grow out of a fast food phase, I still eat out quite a bit. I know I should be at home cooking, but I love dining out. I started working in restaurants in various front of the house positions at age 15. Since my start, I’ve worked in every casual restaurant setting you can think of: a teriyaki stand, brewery, sushi nightclub, trendy Mexican, family-style Italian, American diner, pizza parlor and even a BLT themed food truck. I can't help but notice that many of the LA food bloggers don't have any sort of background working in a restaurant. A lot of my perspective on food and dining out comes from my years of experience in the biz. Since starting this blog, I have shot appearances on a couple of cooking competition shows as a taster (including MasterChef Junior and another upcoming show). We have also started producing a Youtube Channel. IMDb page here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2023647/ For this site I contribute content from all over Los Angeles (and the world) to showcase my favorite fine-dining spots, steakhouses, exclusive supper clubs, Hollywood nightlife and our very own #GOFx events, which I plan and coordinate.
