This is not just a choice, but the result of an obsession the founder gained during a stay in Rome, where he studied the traditional Italian art of charcuterie. Back in De Pijp, he translated that knowledge into his own concept: artisanal charcuterie as the backbone of the menu, suitable also for those who eat Paleo.<\/h2>\n<p>The bread is baked fresh daily; the pitas are steamed for a soft, airy texture. The most famous sandwich is the ribs sandwich: smoked short ribs, proprietary aioli, lettuce, salty pickles, tomato and red onion. The chicken shawarma pita combines tahini, special amba, fresh arugula, sumac onions and tomatoes. Each order is prepared only at the time it is placed - nothing is ready to wait.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-80871\" title=\"mezzave-charcuterie-sandwich-pipe-amsterdam_2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-319x425.jpeg\" alt=\"mezzave-charcuterie-sandwich-pipe-amsterdam_2\" width=\"319\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-319x425.jpeg 319w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-9x12.jpeg 9w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2-375x500.jpeg 375w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/mezzave-charcuterie-broodjes-pijp-amsterdam_2.jpeg 1275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 319px) 100vw, 319px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to sandwiches, Mezzave carries a curated selection of pantry products: unique pastas from Italy, rare olive oils from Spain and selected wines from Israel.
