For almost two years, Lil Papi's International Deli in Concord has been offering a sandwich experience that takes your taste buds on a world tour. | |
From Puerto Rican and Dominican delights to Greek, Peruvian, and Argentinian specialties, Lil Papi's menu showcases a vast array of international sandwiches. Nate Pena, the visionary behind the sandwich shop embarked on this journey immediately after graduating from college.
-
Fun Fact: The items on the menu are numbered after Nate's teammates from his Liberty College football team. Whenever a new sandwich is added, Nate makes a point to reach out to his friends and tell them, "Congratulations, you made it to the board!"
Doubling in size and adding an impressive 25 menu items since opening in Sept 2021, Lil Papi's continually evolves to keep its offerings fresh and exciting.
- Among the most sought-after creations on the menu are the Dominican Chimi, the Primo Italiano, and the Little Havana.
With such a selection of sandwiches, all priced under $10, there is something everyone can enjoy!
