Alidoro
LUNCH May 06 08
We've been waiting for a good warm spring day to go back to Alidoro for sandwiches in the park and today was it. Perfect sandwich-in-the-park weather! The sandwich list at Alidoro is long and dense; finally we settled on the Pavarotti but in a last minute gut instinct switched to the Cortina (speck... Read More

Perfect proportions are the secret to any good meal - when all the ingredients, flavors and textures are well balanced - aaah what deliciousness. That is the greatness behind Alidoro's harmonious sandwiches. A slim layer of thinly sliced meats, generous pieces of fresh mozzarella, some arugula for ... Read More

LUNCH 40 days ago
We're moving into the end of sandwiches-in-the-park days as fall marches on. We've been lucky thus far with the warm weather lasting already into mid-October, but soon it will be too chilly for even the most intrepid eaters to be outside.

Smoked chicken breast from Nodine's, arugula, and Alidoro (formerly Melampo) dressing. When Alessandro Gualandi owned this picture-perfect sandwich shop... Read More

From Serious Eats: New York Is there a prettier name than Sofia? I will name my first born daughter after this sandwich. Well, to be completely honest, my pregnant wife and I decided on the name Sofia long before I ever ate at Alidoro, but I still may claim the sandwich as our inspira... Read More

Don and I made a short bike ride over to Alidoro in Soho last Saturday morning. I've attempted to visit the sandwich shop once before, not very wisely at 12 noon on a weekday. The line poured onto the street and the gentleman in front of me estimated a 45 minute wait. There are better things to do ... Read More

Two old friends joined us for yummy sandwiches at Alidoro, formerly (and famously) known as Melampo. The gruff Alessandro is no longer manning the counter but the sandwiches remain quite tasty. Today's action shots come courtesy of Colin with the Puccini and Ray who holds the Alyssa. It should have... Read More
