Grub Street

Until now our go-to for Soho lunch sandwiches has been Despaña, but it’ll get some Italian competition when Milan-born ad executive Michele Colombo (along with some old Italian high-school friends) opens Salumè on Thursday. Colombo believes the word panini is “one of the most abused terms in the world,” and at his salumeria, the sandwiches won’t be pressed. Instead, the Pullman bread will be lightly toasted and Berkel slicers will cut imported meats to order. As you can see below, the menu also includes canapés (courtesy of chef Giuseppe Bologna) and housemade desserts. Don’t let the sandwich-centric business model fool you: Though the wine and beer license has yet to come in, Colombo wants his operation to be a sit-down place, at least at first — there’s table service, and delivery and takeout won’t start till later. Salumè will be open from 11 a.m. till 11 p.m. daily.
