The one to order

The mortadella sandwich: about 300 grams of hot mortadella and melted provolone in a French roll

The line to expect: A queue at weekend lunch; the market is busiest on Saturdays.

The stall in São Paulo's market hall that many say invented the city's mortadella sandwich, in 1933.

15 min · 2 sandwiches. One great cold cut, three cities: Rome stuffs it into hot pizza bianca, Bologna lays it thin with soft squacquerone cheese, São Paulo piles 300 grams of it, griddled, with melted provolone. Start with mortadella sliced paper thin from the counter.
