"Sonora Bakery isn't the largest panadería in LA, but it's stocked with every pan dulce, cake, and baked goods you could ever want. Most of the space in this East LA shop is occupied by tall glass displays with rows of crescent-shaped cuernitos, sweet conchas, and fresh-baked bolillo rolls to fill your tray (and Nissan Sentra) with. Sonora might be best known, though, for its custom cakes and party subs available up to 10 feet long. These gargantuan sandwiches are made with freshly baked bread and come with everything from salami, ham, turkey, and milanesa. If you're not planning to feed a gaggle of teenagers though, you can get a footlong for less than $10. " - Sylvio Martins, Nikko Duren
