4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: April 5 - Eater LA
"With chairs strewn across the sidewalk under bright yellow umbrellas, Ceci’s Gastronomia really does capture the sidewalk spirit of an Italian cafe. On my first visit, I stumbled into the tight storefront chasing the focaccia that the chalk sandwich outside promised. A quick glance at the menu revealed a few focaccias of the day, served a la carte, focaccia sandwiches, pasta, meatballs, and more. I set my mind on the focaccia sandwich with the frittata inside and settled into a table with an espresso and a book. The first bite had Mina’s “Citta Vuota” playing in the back of my mind as I almost forgot I was in Silver Lake for a moment. The focaccia, which was fresh and salty, provided a perfect shell for the vegetable and herb-laden frittata. Slowly Ceci’s became a destination on walks through Silver Lake, dipping inside for a quick espresso or supply stuffed with mozzarella. Every trip here is a little bit of Italy along Sunset Boulevard." - Eater Staff
