Corti Brothers

Corti Brothers is a longstanding grocer whose deli counter draws a steady crowd for carefully built sandwiches. In house butcher work backs up the meat, and the shelves carry imported pantry goods and prepared foods worth a detour. On Folsom Boulevard in East Sacramento, a quick sandwich stop easily turns into a broader shopping ritual around the serious meat counter.
