HArbour Gourmet Charcuterie

It all started in 2007 when Owner Gilbert Amsellem opened his first dining establishment The Harbour Grill, taking his long lived passion for fine foods to the cozy neighborhood of Surfside, FL  and building it into what will soon become one of the most renowned Kosher Dining establishments in the country.  Always seeking to push the boundaries of the Kosher food industry, Gilbert realized that there was a void in the US that needed to be filled: Authentic Glatt Kosher Charcuterie. Having spent most of his life living in France and traveling through Europe, Gilbert had a precise idea of what exactly he wanted to achieve in terms of product, taste and texture, however Charcuterie making is an art that few very few had experimented with in the U.S. As kosher cuts (beef, lamb, duck, veal) do not react in the same way than cuts derived from non-kosher animals do, actual methods and recipes had to be implemented in order to turn Glatt Kosher cuts of meat into a finished product that would most resemble the wide selection of Charcuterie meats available to the non-kosher public. After years of trial and error testing, using known methods of salting, smoking, brining, and curing that have been practiced for centuries around the world by non-kosher charcuterie makers, Gilbert fine tuned his recipes and preparation processes to offer a wide selection of products that will taste, look, and feel just like the Charcuterie that can be found in the best Charcuterie shops of France or Italy.

About Us
