Poccarella's on Coursey.


My favorite--I think it's spelled Pocorello's though. It's an Italian deli in a little strip-shopping center on Coursey.

They got Gendusa to bake the bread and although they were Italian bakers the dough used was French therefore a true po boy is made on French bread which as of now is pretty much dominated by Leidenheimer who has bought out most of the old bakeries.
Gendusa actually originated the New Orleans style French bread. true french bread had pointed "noses", but Gendusa flattened it out so it could better hold the stuffings of a po boy

This is correct. The Martin's went to them because the ones they were using had too much waste.
