5. Flatbread sandwiches get the fast-casual treatment
Josef Centeno, a Los Angeles-based chef who operates several other restaurants, debuted a fast-casual outfit that sells his signature “baco” sandwiches. BacoShop also sells “bacorritos,” grain bowls and salads. Centeno first served the flatbread sandwiches as a staff meal at one of his restaurants a decade ago. They can be filled with virtually anything, including meatballs, coffee-rubbed steak or fava-based hummus. BacoShop offers a catering menu and delivery via Caviar.
