Founded in 1906 by Salvatore Lupo, a Sicilian immigrant, the store was one of many family owned, neighborhood grocery stores during the early 20th century, when the French Quarter was still predominantly a residential area. It is famous as the home of the New Orleans muffuletta sandwich invented by Salvatore Lupo, to feed the Sicilian truck farmers who sold their produce at the Farmer's Market on Decatur Street in the French Quarter. Central Grocery remains today in the New Orleans French Quarter. A muffuletta (muff-uh-LOT-uh) is a sandwich made with a Sicilian seeded bread commonly known as muffuletta bread. An average muffuletta averages 10 inches in diameter. The inside of the muffuletta contains ham, salami, mortadella and provolone cheese and olive salad. The meats and cheeses in the muffuletta can be found at ay local delicatessen; however, what separates most muffuletta sandwiches is the olive salad.

We are transplanted New Orleanians and when I found the original Central Market Grocery olive salad on your site I almost cried! Ordered 4 bottles for Xmas presents! It arrived 4 days later and was wrapped well so there was no breakage during shipping. It was the biggest hit at Xmas. Thank you!!! I will be ordering again!

  The Best..
Reviewed by:  James Vankollenburg from Chicago, IL. on 11/1/2011
This olive salad fits into a "type." The ingredients do not seem so special or different than others available. Yet for some unknown reason, it is superior to any other. It is that simple: it is superior to any other.

Having been to New Orleans countless times over the years, I've enjoyed The Muffuletta at Central Grocery every time. But, when I need my fix, I buy The Olive Salad from Central Grocery to make my 'Po man's version of a Muffuletta (you just can't get that bread in Pittsburgh). And for a little while, I'm transported back to my second favorite City. :)
  Great stuff!

I was in New Orleans not too long ago and had a Muffelletta sandwich from the Certified Grocers shop with this olive salad on it. Great sandwich but now I can make my own great sandwich now that I have the Olive Salad. Can't get enough of it!
  Outstanding!!!
