Delicatessens at a GlanceA delicatessen, or deli, could be described as a synthesis of a grocery store and a fast-food restaurant. The word delicatessen comes from the German Delicatessen, the plural form of Delicatesse. This old spelling later changed to the spelling Delikatessen in current German. The word entered German from French délicatesse and means "delicious things (to eat)", but it ultimately originating from the Latin adjective delicatus, meaning "giving pleasure, delightful, pleasing" but also (especially regarding a person) "overly-luxurious, spoilt".Delicatessens offer a wider and fresher menu than those found at chain fast food restaurants, and routinely preparing sandwiches to order. In addition to made-to-order sandwiches, many delicatessens offer made-to-order green salads. Equally common is a selection of prepared pasta, potato, chicken, tuna, shrimp, or other variety of salads.
