I just went with a friend to a mexican place that is new to me, La Castena. You would never know that such a great burrito place existed. As you pull up in the back parking lot, you know that this place is authentic. I felt like I was in little Tijuana while I walked through the market, completely hispanic foods of course, to the back through a doorway where the kitchen was. It was cafeteria style. Now I am not fond on the “hofbrau” style of dining, but this was a sight to see. For my epicurean delight, there were three choices of burrito; small, regular and super. I, of course, being there for the first time, ordered the super. I don’t mean 10 inches super. I mean 3 ft super. Thats right, for 10 bucks I got a burrito that was 3 ft! It was made with 6 tortillas and was exactly as I ordered, because I was able to tell them what I wanted in it like you can at Subway or Togo’s. I now have my intestines at least 2 ft fuller and feel like passing out. Or at least taking a nap. The bottom line is, what the hell was I thinking?? That was one heck of a burrito! You should have seen the looks on everyone’s face as we both hauled in our “small children”, I mean burritos. When making an impression with a burrito, I have now learned that size really does matter.
