An incredible journey of fortitude, discovery, willpower and weight gain, 30 Sandwiches in 30 Days is officially over. But is a journey like that every really over? In both the metaphorical and literal sense: no. We had such a long list of sandwiches, many of them culled from suggestions sent......

It's probably too late to purchase most of these gifts in time for Christmas, but that doesn't mean we can't sit and drool at the intersection of food and fashion. Sorry, Miss Turkey's custom-made burger bikini was auctioned off for charity months ago......

Since opening in April 2010, Coffee Commissary has consistently brewed top-notch beans from the likes of Coava, Sightglass and Victrola, earning a spot among our Top 10 Coffee Shops in L.A.

Of all the new, upscale, non-deli sandwiches we've tried over the past month-and-a-half, Josef Centeno's bäcos are, hands-down, the most original and most compelling......

Burgers just aren't enough for Adam Flesichman. The Umami Burger impresario, who's also getting ready to debut UMAMIcatessen in downtown L.A., has partnered with Anthony Carron and his Umami cohort Allen Ravert in 800 Degrees, a Neapolitan Pizzeria that will open its first location in Westwood in early January 2012......

What goes well with a Crave Case? (That'd be 30 of White Castle's square-patty, steam-grilled sliders.) How about a beer? The fast-food chain, which is prevalent on the East Coast but has no locations here, is testing beer and wine sales, a notion that might persuade Harold and & Kumar......
