At Open Market, the sandwiches make for an interesting map of Los Angeles: The Normandie, the Pico, the Olympic, the Virgil and others take their names from the city’s streets, reflecting its cultures and flavors. The coffee is roasted in Granada Hills. The Chingoo snack mix arrives via Koreatown and Torrance. The baguettes and buns are made daily by Clark Street Bread in Echo Park.
