Central Grocery and Deli was closed for renovations but you could pick up their famed muffeleta right next door at the adjacent liquor store. They probably will be open again by the time you read this. The muffeleta is a huge round sandwich stuffed with Italian meats and dressed with olive salad. I have a huge appetite and I couldn't even finish half. It's perfect for sharing or saving for later. The bread and meats were excellent quality and the olive salad is good enough to eat on its own. They also have a location at the airport so you can grab one if you have a layover.

The store front is still closed, but you can easily find the store next door sells them (just read the sign.) Enjoy! * parking can be a bear!

Ok did the pull up delivery and finally got to try a new orleans staple. Central grocerys muffaletta sandwich. The sandwich was delivered properly packaged and it smelled absolutely delicious. I waisted no time cutting into the sandwhich to try a bite. The olive salad really came through on the first bite followed by the fatty richness of the cold cuts and cheese. The sandwich was huge and could feed 2 Peolple for sure or four people if you were cut them into wedges. The only thing I would say that was a concern is the sandwich is a little salty from the meats and olives. So if your not big fan of Brineness and Saltiness from the olives then your probably not gonna be a big fan of the sandwich. The other thing that stood out was the bread. This is a pretty breadie sandwich. Now don't get me wrong there is plenty of meat and cheese but the thickness of the bread on this sandwich will fill you up fast. So if not into a lot bread or carbs then this sandwich would give a run for your money and is probably gonna be to much for you. Other than that it's pretty good. Not great but just good.
