And every story in Eddie Sosa\u2019s vibrant life created a sandwich and he invites you to bring your appetite and enjoy one of his extraordinary creations. Located in an Uber take-out\/pick-up kitchen in Astoria, Sosa\u2019s storied sandwiches are a couple of clicks away, or just call Eddie directly.<\/p>\n<p>Sosa\u2019s Sandwich Shop is decidedly NOT a deli, nor a brick-and-mortar eatery. It\u2019s become a sensation thanks to fans\u2019 stories, videos, photos on social media, and YouTube. In fact, on YouTube, Eddie himself describes the story behind every sandwich and how he prepares it. The \u201cArthur Avenue\u201d evokes some of his earliest memories in the Bronx with his grandmother, eating pork chops with vinegar peppers at Dominic\u2019s on Arthur Avenue. I could only eat half of this outrageously delicious sandwich, made with a whole pork chop and vinegar peppers on the crustiest, chewiest Ciabatta bread.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a journey of memories,\u201d says sandwich craftsman, Eddie Sosa, who grew up in Queens to a Colombian, Puerto Rican, and Dominican family. Food was always central to his childhood and that explains all his unique creations. \u201cThat Cuban\u201d struck him on a trip to Miami, where he had the best Cuban sandwich of his life\u2026until he started making his own. Sosa\u2019s Cuban is loaded with roast pork shoulder, grilled ham, melty Swiss cheese, and tangy pickles on toasted baguette from local Parisi Bakery. Grilled and pressed, the bread has a warm crunch that you bite into, unleashing a flavor bomb in your mouth. Call now and get \u201cThat Cuban\u201d ($20).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/2026-05-06\/11p2.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-198157\" class=\"wp-image-198157 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/11p2-197x300.jpg\" alt=\"your order online or by using the kiosk in the lobby of the building for fast pick up or delivery.\" width=\"197\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-198157\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">your order online or by using the kiosk in the lobby of the building for fast pick up or delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Sosa makes his own dough for the \u201cBelly Bao,\u201d a delightful bao bun filled with pork belly marinated in mango, fig, and ginger, topped with shredded daikon and pickled carrots for a soft, savory, tangy treat. The \u201cBistec\u201d is tender, crispy breaded beef resting on black bean mousse, mojo mayo, arugula, and tomato on a toasted, buttered hero ($18). Tender Tandoori chicken is piled on to homemade Naan bread with another tale behind its creation. The \u201cJamaica Avenue\u201d is an homage to the classic Jamaican beef patty, made here from scratch with ground chuck and oxtail, special spices and that golden crust, served inside traditional island coco bread ($10). \u201cThe Shelly\u201d is a riff on a friend\u2019s Korean BBQ sliders, named for her, and a favorite amongst his kids ($15).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgazette.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/2026-05-06\/11p3.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-198161\" class=\"wp-image-198161 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/11p3-300x260.jpg\" alt=\"\u00a0\" width=\"300\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-198161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wash down these hefty sandwiches with homemade horchata, lemonade, sorrel ginger lemonade and more.
