This is why I live in So Cal

[Edmick]

Chicken, rice and cheese burrito, cheese quesadilla and carne asade torta. And oh my god, some of the best fresh hot sauce around. I can die a happy man..

 

[hogleg]

That torta looks bangin!     
 
If you are ever up north you should try this place.
 
I'd put their chicken mole tamales up against any in the nation.
 
They actually grind maize in house

I dont remember the name of the place but it was a sit down joint. Walk through the door and the kitchen was to the far right.

I have singled out my favorite Mexican joint, right down the street. 1.65 Al pastor tacos. They are so fire! My wife and kids love the barbacoa.

#1 looks greasy, and neither of those do it for me.
 
#2 looks good!

 

[Edmick]

The quesadilla was greasy as hell. The burrito and torta were really good.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

It did look greasy, and full disclosure, I am not a huge mission burrito fan, if I do burrito I like them toasted under the broiler with sauce and cheese, sometimes called wet burrito. More like a huge enchilada. 

 

[NIbbles]

most good foods are greasy, but a dab from a paper towel will do fine for me.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Not when it soaks into bread like that.

 

[Mr.CtChilihead]

What I loved most of my time in Ca. was definitely the Mexican food..And maybe that one crazy couple of days in Halfmoon bay hanging out with homeless hippies..

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Mission burrito or wet burrito? Just sayin lol.
 

 

[Edmick]

I just like burritos. Wet, dry, doesn't matter to me. I'm a sucker for a good chimichanga too.

 

[Grass Snake]

Translucent burritos are my fav lol
