In 1918, Philippe's fortuitously invented the French Dip in Los Angeles. Or in a totally different year, it happened totally differently at Cole's. What is considerably less in dispute is the origin of the Italian dip. That goes to Pirolo's Panino, a new Italian sandwich shop from James Beard semifinalist Michael Pirolo of Miami's Macchialina. It opens Tuesday and here are visual depictions of what to expect.

As you can see, it's a simple Italian sandwich shop. Just biding its time on Melrose while you browse the street's PVC mini-dresses, bong/gasmask hybrids and questionable shopkeeper hairstyles and suddenly find yourself with an appetite. It wants to be there for you.
