"One of Los Angeles’s more central hikes is in El Sereno. Ascot Hills Park overlooks the Downtown skyline and an expansive network of trails. For hiking fuel, head to the adjacent family-operated Village Mart and Deli for one of the city’s best breakfast burritos. The sandwiches are old-school with meatball subs, egg salad, and Italian subs, along with a crowd-pleasing Salsalito with spicy turkey, chipotle mayo, pepperjack, and romaine." - Rebecca Roland
