Those of you ready to put more mileage on your cars and more inches around your waistbands, take heed: the Noble Pig's expanded retail deli will officially open November 25th next door to the original. According to a press release sent out this morning, the "Noble Pig Deli and Charcuterie will offer a variety of meats, mustards, pickles, relishes, breads, seasonal desserts, and grab and go ciabatta sandwiches." But we already knew that, because we talked to Noble Pigger John Bates earlier this month and got all the relevant details about the salon-turned-deli that'll widen the Pig footprint. Eventually, he told us, they'd like to expand to doing wholesale operations, too.
