Located
at 923 Decatur Street in the French Quarter, Central Grocery is a small,
old-fashioned Italian grocery store. It
is known for its sandwich counter that serves up the infamous muffuletta
sandwich invented by Salvatore Lupo, the founder of Central Grocery. This sandwich was created to feed the
Sicilian truck farmers who sold their produce at the farmer’s market on Decatur
Street. This little store also sells
Italian, Greek, French, Spanish and Creole table delicacies. You can even find
delicacies such as chocolate covered grasshoppers and bumble bees in soy sauce.
