Prosciutto, Prosciutto, Prosciutto

Nothing better than thick crusty bread & Prosciutto "The Typical Italian Sandwich"


I (Tom) really love going to Spillimbergo on Saturdays. Saturday in Spillimbergo is the market day. You can get everything from produce to ferrets at the market and anything in-between. We usually go to see what cool clothes are for sale. You get much better prices at the market than if you go to the mall or department store. So off we went to the market...me and my girls, and of course, Michelle's new camera. We were able to pick up some sweaters for the girls and Michelle picked up a thing or two. The girls got their fill of fried calamari and a soda before we settled into our favorite little wine bar. We take everyone we know to this place for a glass of Tocai (local white wine) and some bread and prosciutto (best ham in the world). Yesterday was packed, but the owner, a great friend of ours after so many visits, quickly found us a table and took great care of us. When it was all said and done, we ate a bunch of prosciutto and had four glasses of Tocai for the low-low price of 10 Euro. Not bad huh? Just another beautiful day in Spillimbergo.

You DON'T take EVERYONE you know...we haven't been there or even asked for that matter..
Maybe we don't REALLY know you?
