Classic Italian Sub

A. Litteri is old-school, a gorgeous Italian market near Union Market, packed to the brim with every manner of pasta, vinegar and oil, and sauces tucked in the back is one of DC’s best delis. Skip the hemming and hawing over the various cold cuts on display – you’re here for one thing and one thing only, the Classic Italian Sub with capicola, genoa salami, mortadella, prosciutto, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, hot peppers, and Italian dressing. A 6-inch soft roll is the perfect vehicle, but no one’s giving you a hard time if you go all out and get a footlong. These sandwiches are worth savoring for more than one meal.

A 6in half soft roll is the perfect vehicle, but no one’s giving you the side eye if you go all out and get a footlong. These sandwiches are worth savoring for more than one meal.
