4 Restaurants to Try Fourth of July Weekend in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"A focaccia-sandwich shop steps from the water serving summer’s ultimate sandwich — a peak-season tomato BLT on salty, crackly bread that texturally crosses somewhere between focaccia and ciabatta. The shop’s BLT, swiped with garlic mayo and piled with iceberg lettuce, sliced tomato, and Nueske’s bacon, makes for near-ideal picnic fare; pair it with the shop’s "picnic nachos," really a small pint of homemade pimento cheese with Have’a tortilla chips, and an icy Arnold Palmer. Mix and match with the half-sandwich option or go all in on the one you love most. Vegetarian options include a mozzarella sandwich stacked high with alfalfa sprouts; the shop doesn’t have a gluten-free focaccia supplier yet but one day, we’re sure, it will (maybesomeone nearby in Venice can help).
