- Salumeria
- Norcineria (from the town of Norcia, renowned for its cured meats)
- Gastronomia - A place where you'd buy a range of prepared items, from salads to ready-to-heat main courses
And, like the picture, you'll find a dazzling array of cured meat products in any one of them. There are hundreds of types of salami found in Italy.
When you've located the meat you'd like to buy, you'll have determine how much you need. A kilogram is way too much for a couple of people on a picnic. An etto, or tenth of a kilo, is just about right for two people, just under a quarter pound. When the owner holds up the salami and asks, "Quante?" you would reply, "Un etto, per favore" or, if you're hungry, "due etti, per favore."
