Salumeria Simoni
The Quadrilatero's most respected salumeria
The story
Since 1960 this family salumeria has stood on a corner in the heart of the old market district. It sells Bolognese and Emilian salumi: mortadella, ciccioli, culatello and Parma ham, plus a fine selection of Parmigiano Reggiano. Its artisan mortadella follows the Mortadella Bologna IGP rules. Davide Simoni also runs mortadella tours. Expect a queue, and take a number when you walk in.
🍽️ What to order
- Mortadella sliced paper-thin
- Salame rosa, a Bolognese speciality
- Parmigiano Reggiano, vacuum-packed to fly home
💡 Insider tips
