"The" Muffuletta Shrine!
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

11/13/2006 Posted by jaymaygm

Do not visit NO, without going to Central Grocery. I don't know how many years it has existed, but it is the home of the Mufuletta. Philly has the CheeseSteak, Memphis, the BBQ, but the Muffuletta rules here. We just usually get a half, and waddle back to our hotel for an afternoon nap. The store has a very large selection of gourmet goodies to take back to your hometown. Always crowded, and fun. Love it!

Pros: World's Best & Original Muffuletta! New Orleans Tradition!

Cons: Very Crowded, But Very Fun!

The place for oversized, overstuffed, delicious muffulettas.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

For most, a quarter sandwich will do just fine; a half will put you away for the rest of the day.
