Salumeria Rosi Parmacotto Last Tuesday night, Giorgio , Carolyn and I went for dinner at Salumeria Rosi after the grand opening of Eataly . Salumeria Rosi is Chef Cesare Casella ’s restaurant. It is located at 283 Amsterdam Avenue on New York’s Upper West Side. Upon arrival, we were promptly given a table outside. It was a bit muggy out, but still a nice night for al fresco dining. We ordered a bottle of 2007 Pinot Noir from the Alto-Adige (Note: this wine was a little too bubbly for our taste. Being from the Alto-Adige, this is a possibility). As the waiter was getting the bottle, which turned out to be a 2008, we perused the menu and made our dining choices. I should mention that the portions Salumeria Rosi are tapas sized, which is perfect to share amongst friends. They are not called tapas here. Instead, they are referred to as “assaggi della cucina”, literally translated as “tastes of the kitchen”. Cesare’s Signature Rosemary Bushes outside Salumeria Rosi When the waiter returned, we ordered our dinner. We started out with Selezione Del Salumerie, which was a selection of salumi that included Prosciutto di Parma, parmacotto, pancetta, finnocchiona, cacciatorino, arista, sweet soppressata and spicy coppa. My two favorites were the finnocchiona and the pancetta. The finnocchiona had a sweet, fennel flavor with a tiny bite. The pancetta was wonderful. The warmth of my mouth melted the fat around the edge of the pancetta. To me, it is one step below lardo (pure pork fat sliced very thin), which is truly pork heaven! Selezione Del Salumerie We moved onto a few of the “assaggi”. We started with the Insalata Pontormo. I always order this salad whenever I dine at Salumeria Rosi. It is one of Chef Casella’s signature dishes. It is a salad of mixed greens with a soft-scrambled egg and pancetta. The pancetta is nice and crispy whereas the egg is soft and warm. The warmth of the egg wilts the greens ever so slightly but also changes the flavor of the greens. It almost brings out the bitterness in the greens, but in a really good way. Insalata Pontormo (salad of soft-scrambled egg, pancetta and market greens) The Matuffi Del Pastore is a rustic polenta dish with a ragu of Italian tomatoes and fresh rosemary sprinkled with Parmigiano-Reggiano. To me, it is a beautiful and simple dish.

When it set out to evaluate all its options for the future of its narrowbody product, Boeing established three potential goal posts for itself: An all new aircraft, a re-enginged 737, or leave the venerable workhorse alone, avoiding a costly investment against a re-engined Airbus A320 and Bombardier’s CS100. While its final end-of-year decision has yet to be announced, the company’s thinking around its future plans have evolves significantly over the past year. As it stands today, Being is entertaining a fourth option, dubbed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO, Jim Albaugh, as the 737 Next Generation Plus or 737NG+.
