taqueria tacos or other?

what else is in the burrito?

Initial personal reaction with optimal personal ingredients has tacos as the winner.

Corn tortillas, al pastor, cilantro, grilled onion, lime, and hot sauce.

most days, i'm a taco man. onions, cilantro, salsa and lime - as long as the meat is fresh, that's all i need. plus you can eat light or eat a lot, depending on your hunger factor. my personal favorite is a pastor where they put pineapple in it. (similr to ^^)

the guac/cheese/rice/beans is nice every once in a while.

 

[youngEINSTEIN]

whatever kind of tacos and whatever kind of burrito. unlimited ingredients.

peace, stein. . .

Tacos is the way to go for me.
Burritos have always been an "on the run" meal.
Tacos need a lil more love when made.
Ain't nuthin like abuelitas homemade tacos.

Burritos can have a lot of filler, are often poorly constructed, and just have less love to them all around.

Tacos. After years as a dedicated burrito eater, I've come to appreciate the relative lightness and the aforementioned simplicity of tacos. And I found the ill spot to get them in my hometown finally.

yeah i feel tacos more for the most part just because i don't know of any places that have small burritos and i ain't always in the mood the eat a shitload of food.

 

[ketan]

i will say that freshly made taquitos with a side of guac are a special treat.

Breakfast burritos > Tacos > other burritos

Tacos...And I found the ill spot to get them in my hometown finally.

Dude. You mean you were having trouble finding a good taco place in San Jose??? Shit, all you had to do was ask! Which spot are you talking about?

Being mostly vegetarian, I'm a burrito man by neccessity. I love fish tacos but there aren't really any good ones around here.

Plus I occasionally enjoy the convenience of a bigass burrito being most of what I eat in a day - but its easy to get burnt out on.

 

[ennui]

Wuddup Chaz! It's not like there aren't many good ones, but Metro Balderas has become the spot. I don't even like tripe, but their tripas tacos are next level.What's your spot?

In response to earlier:

Al Pastor tacos should be served with little pineapple pieces...No pineapple=No deal for me.

When I want a cheesy treat, one local spot makes the best pastor and Oaxacan cheese quesadillas...I think I will be there this weekend for lunch.

I love Mexican food and I had my last burrito maybe 12 years ago... one of the things that makes Mexican food so beautiful is that you can eat so many different things in one meal. Why order a burrito? They always look boring, soggy and way too big.

Burrito isn't even Mexican as far as I know, right? I heard they invented this stuff for the US market...

tacos....CARNITAS!!!!

not true. burritos are in fact mexican in origin. however, they are a newer post-columbian creation as wheat flour wasnt introduced to central america until after spain arrived.

also, i like tacos more.

tacos....CARNITAS!!!!

I don't think I've ever loved any food more than I love carnitas.
