Within Two Degrees: Yon Huilu, Founder and Head Chef of Paper Boy Deli.

Paper Boy feels like the result of a lifetime spent paying attention to ingredients, technique, tradition, and the small details most people never notice.

Yon spent time out West studying the care this kind of culinary takes. Now he dedicates every morning to the foundation of the business making schiacciata by hand. The early bird, gets the bread!

Find them tucked away in downtown Minneapolis and see what all the attention to detail is about.

Meet Yon, founder of Paper Boy Deli 🥖✨

Every morning starts at 3:30am making fresh schiacciata bread by hand. Inspired by Tuscan sandwich shops and the flavors of his childhood, @1990yon is bringing high quality ingredients and generations of Tuscan tradition to Minneapolis through @paperboy.deli.

What’s especially inspiring is the discipline, creativity, and endurance behind building multiple things this thoughtfully at once, all while staying deeply intentional about every ingredient and detail.

Go try a sandwich at Paper Boy and tag your favorite below 🥪
