"A Florence-born sandwich shop known for its schiacciata sandwiches; a recent favorite is the La District, topped with thin-sliced pancetta, pecorino cream, sun-dried tomatoes, and arugula. The thin-sliced pancetta is described as salty and fatty, which balances the acidity of the sun-dried tomatoes. The pecorino cream “has all the flavors of a more traditional sliced pecorino; its lush consistency ensures there are no naked corners of the sandwich.” The arugula provides a welcome, peppery green against the richness of the other ingredients. The La District is priced at $17 right now but is noted to be easily large enough to feed two, and staff are always generous with toppings. — Rebecca Roland, editor, Southern California/Southwest" - Eater Staff
