Fortunately there's no need to panic. The new owners bought both
Ferrari and Andronico's out of bankruptcy, and are shuttering
Andronico's while increasing procurment through Ferrari. They
have actually expanded the range of A.G. Ferrari-branded products
recently (I mentioned seeing some up in a swankish grocery store
in Portland). There is for example Ferrari-brand pastrami now,
which they call "manzo Tirolese". I have no idea if that's
authentic nomenclature or not. It is good, but it is an un-fatty
pastrami so not what a lot of people want.

I hope not. I like the parking at the only Andronico's location here
and doesn't overlap any AG Ferrari that I know of.

Nice to hear. I need to drop by soon. Too bad they aren't more
conveniently located.

Nonfatty would put it in the plus column at my house. It only has to
be tender and tasty.

Then check it out. Ferrari also has very good porchetta.
