  • carne asada burrito on menues outside of San Diego. They have absolutely zero resemblance to what I recognize as a carne asada burrito. The real deal has citrus marinated beef, guacamole, pico de gallo salsa. That’s it. No rice. No beans. No cheese. No creama. No corn.

    Exactly exactly exactly exactly. I didn’t order a California burrito. I ordered a carne asada burrito. It should have carne asada. Thats it. If I order a chicken fajita burrito, guess what? It should have chicken fajitas. Thats it. I also feel like anyone not familiar with like, the real Mexican food that comes out of the Los An-dieg-a-juana super region, they just don’t get it when we rant about the Mexican food. Its not a better burrito because you put a filler in it to spend less money on what the customer paid for…

    I have to rant about this EVERYTIME I can. Its like, almost impossible to get good Mexican food outside of the region. My favorite is in Barrio Carlsbad, Lola’s 7-up market, which has been a community pillar for something like, a century or more.

    After that, probably Lourdes in Escondido. Even though they are more famous for their chicken soup.

    Also, what the fuck happened with TJ tacos? They used to be like 0.25, and now they charge as much as they do for a real taco.
