A 500-square-foot West Passyunk corner spot that runs two very different programs under one roof. Thursday through Sunday evenings, the deli counter gives way to a 14-seat trattoria: fixed-price, multicourse, and sourced almost entirely from Northeast farms, with a head-to-tail butchery philosophy that shapes every plate. Reservations come by mailing list and fill fast. During the day, it's a proper deli turning out house-cured meats, charcuterie boards, and sandwiches worth crossing town for.
Trattoria @ Heavy Metal Sausage. Two seatings nightly (5:30 / 7:30). Reservations released through the mailing list - sign up to get the alert when each round opens.
