There’s really no contest. I don’t like waiting for my food, especially if I’m standing in line. But, for very good reason, I’ll show up at Salumi during the lunch rush (before noon till after 1), and wait for the better part of an hour till the sandwich hits my paws. It’s the cured meat. It’s the bread. It’s the serving size, fit for two. But after the wait, you’ll need it. Yeah, there are times of the day when there’s a manageable line— say, after 2ish. But by then the best stuff is gone. And the experience of standing with a dozen like-minded brothers and sisters is part of the fare.—Chris Kornelis 309 Third Ave. S., 621-8772.
