You Re Gonna Wanna Getta Muffaletta From J P Graziano

• Muffaletta at J.P. Graziano & Sons

I had to be in the West Loop for an interview for an upcoming piece, so I thought the logical thing to do for lunch was to go to Nonna’s to try this thing that Mike Sula wrote about Monday. But that was before I saw the Twitter exchange between Jim Graziano, of the much-loved J.P. Graziano, and Jim Behymer, cofounder of the admirable Sandwich Tribunal blog, discussing Graziano’s special of the month: a muffaletta.

Anyway, it’s delicious and it’s enormous; I have another half waiting for me today, so that tripe sandwich from Nonna’s gets pushed back another day. If you’re not full from reading about it yet, be sure to check out the commentary at Sandwich Tribunal, too—we missed each other by minutes on Fat Tuesday.
