Houston po' boys in butcher paper since 1962
Other
Jalal Antone's 1962 import market on Taft Street grew into the city's signature po' boy: color-coded, wrapped in white butcher paper, sold at two full-service Houston shops and in grocery cases across Texas. Now run by Legacy Restaurants, the same group as the Original Ninfa's.
The Trove note
The Original — ham, salami, provolone, chow chow — eaten off butcher paper is the Houston move.— trove-editorial
