- Keep He seems notable, he has a WP:RS that profiles him: 1, 2. He seems to have gotten sustained coverage on account of his sandwich shop and other activities 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Perhaps we could just edit out the self promotion tone? - GretLomborg (talk) 21:45, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

- Delete' per WP:NOT -- overly promotional article with all indications of having been created by someone with a close connection to the subject. Basically, spam. Wikipedia is not a web hosting service for the subject's CV / tribute page. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:14, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - Plenty of third-party coverage coverage per GretLomborg above, and the article as is isn't bad enough to warrant WP:TNT. While the tone may be promotional, deletion is not cleanup. Article can easily be salvaged with removal of the overly promotional bits.PohranicniStraze (talk) 04:03, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
