Tucked inside Sci-Arc (the Southern California Institute of Architecture, occupying the former Santa Fe Freight Depot), Black Fig could take some sneakiness to access. Follow a student in (it's legal, don't worry), and head into the school; oogle at the work being produced and end up at what is clearly a favorite spot for students and teachers alike. The owners must be twins, and are up to creating a signature sandwich just for you. Enjoy your covert mission posing as an architecture student with some delicious Lemongrass Mate iced tea (if they have it today).
