Located at 45-14 48th Avenue in Sunnyside, New York, Cemitas El Tigre is a little bit of a trip, but truly worth it!

They are famous for their cemitas, which are also known as Mexican Dagwood. It originated in Puebla, Mexico where the sandwiches would be layered together with fresh ingredients.

Here at Cemitas El Tigre they like to take their cemitas a little bit further. You are given your choice of meat followed by your choice of fixings such as avocado, Oaxaca Cheese, pickled onions, papalo, chipotle puree, mayonnaise, black bean puree, lettuce and tomatoes! That’s a grand total of…wait for it…TEN LAYERS!
