Once upon a time ago, we ate a bäco. It was in Echo Park at a weird place called Lot 1 Café. Then, like a phantom it disappeared and reappeared at The Lazy Ox Canteen. It's not always available, but we got to eat the bäco because chef Josef Centeno once made it for staff meal, and well, it was damn good. Then, Twitter revealed a new user: @the_baco. It's bio: "I'm a delicious flatbread sandwich created by Josef Centeno." Truth. Like the bäco, the twitter account moved around as well (to @bacomercat), but hopefully both have found a resting spot in Bäco Mercat, a brick-and-mortar shop, .

Dining on atypical cuts may seem to be solely the domain of foodies, snobs who use food as cultural capital. I've met people like that and, yes, they're assholes.

Whenever I have moved to a different area of Los Angeles, it's not the new gourmet restaurants that I miss the most, but the local dive bars and hole-in-the-wall restaurants.
