History
Tramezzini NYC was founded by and is currently managed by two Italian brothers, Filippo Paccagnella and Massimiliano Paccagnella, who thought of the idea in 2015.[3][4] Prior to starting Tramezzini NYC, Filippo Paccagnella was an architect and designer.[5] Both grew up in Pianiga, a small village in Veneto, Italy.[6]
In 2016, Tramezzini NYC debuted as a vendor at Smorgasburg,[7] a popular street food fair with multiple locations in New York and Brooklyn.[5][8][9] Eventually, Tramezzini NYC opened as a restaurant in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.[4][6][8] They became known for importing authentic bread and ingredients from Veneto, Italy.[4][5][9]
Davide Pedon joined the owners as honorary co-founder in 2017.[4] In May 2019, Tramezzini NYC was invited to the NYC Food Fair in Osaka where they introduced Venetian sandwiches for the first time in Japan.[8][10]
In April 2017, Tramezzini NYC was featured on Gothamist’s “The Best Street Food Vendors in NYC.”[11]
Tramezzini NYC was featured on Thrillist’s “Best sandwiches around the world” in June 2019.[12] In April 2019, Tramezzini NYC made it onto a Bloomberg list called “The Best 14 Sandwiches in New York, as Picked by Top Chefs.”[13]
Tramezzini NYC appeared on “Fork Yeah” by Thrillist in the episode “Meet the Tramezzino” in July 2019.[14]
The Fung Brothers also featured Tramezzini NYC in a November 2020 episode of their YouTube show titled, “Is Subway's Italian better than an authentic Italian sandwich?”[15]
