Muffaletta

You can find a Muffaletta on almost any menu in the French Quarter, but all Muffalettas are not the same. This Italian sandwich, made of salami, cheese, olive salad and ham, is on a huge round loaf of Italian bread. The secret is in the bread and the olive salad. The Central Grocery version of this sandwich is a local favorite, but tourists buy them to go and carry them home on air flights all over the world. Perfect complements to the Muffaletta would be Zapp's potato chips and a Barq's root beer.
