Meat to Go – Boccalone’s Famous Salumi Cone

Isn't it darling? A nosegay of meat!

My fondness for pork is pretty common knowledge amongst anyone who knows me.

That said, I really have to admire Chris Cosentino and Mark Pastore’s mission to make porcine delights ('œtasty, salted pig parts' to be exact) more accessible to the people.

Which is why, if you happen to be in the vicinity of the Ferry Building, a trip to Boccalone will reward you with one of the best snacks since my beloved chicharrones – the famous salumi cone!

If you ever wished you could just walk around with a charcuterie plate like it was perfectly normal, your day has come.

From silky mortadella to pancetta piana, the workers will set you up with a paper cone filled with salty, unctuous bliss for $3.50.

Meat to go – What an age we live in! God keep you guys.
