In New Orleans, It's the Monday Muffuletta Conundrum
I too believed the Progress Market's muffuletta to be better than Central's. I wasn't impressed with Serio's. Current favorite is Napolean House, preferable warmed.

Most memorable is from a dive next to a pool hall near East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, TN. I've been a fan of the eastern Carolina style every since!

New Orleans, when to go, what to eat
Napolean House for muffaletta (warm), Liuzza's by the Track for BBQ Shrimp PoBoy, Irene's in the Quarter for dinner (no reservations are taken), Croissant D'Or Patisserie in the Quarter for pastries, Mothers for fried oysters, Dunbars or Praline connection for Souther/soul food. Amen on Jacques Imo's, Dick and Jenny's, Upperline. I think Commander's is overpriced and overhyped.

Five hours on my favorite bagel recipe only to discover I'd omitted the absolutely necessary honey!

In New Orleans, It's the Monday Muffuletta Conundrum
Ditto on being unimpressed with the Central Market muffaletta. I preferred them from Progress Market, while it was open. Current FQ muffaletta favorite is Napolean House.
