Recently Carla and Christina Pallotta, the owners of Nebo restaurant on North Washington, came by on a tour of the neighborhood. They come in often to stock up for home and their restaurant. But this Saturday, a Boston Globe travel reporter and photographer accompanied them. Carla and Christina grew up in the North End, and remember coming in to shop with their mother. That day, they had fun reminiscing with Erminio Martignetti, our founder, and tasting delicious cheeses and cured meats. 

And one result -- besides the fun of seeing old friends -- was a fantastic story in the Boston Globe Sunday Travel section Dec. 11 with Salumeria Italiana and Erminio at the top of the story.
