Central Grocery is the birthplace of the French Quarter’s favorite sandwich: the muffaletta. Founded in 1906, Central Grocery was exactly what its name suggests, a specialty food store slinging delicacies from Sicily and the old continent. While they still stock delicious goodies from around the world, Central’s claim to fame is the invention of the intimidatingly hearty muffaletta sandwich, a mouthwatering stack of salami, ham, mortadella, provolone, emmental, and olive salad wedged in a round Sicilian bread.
