I could rave on and on about their amazing breakfast burrito, but I will save that for a later post. For now, you'll just have to hear about my ride home with an oh-so delicious carnitas, black bean monster. After watching the chef pull out chunks of pork that were then chopped up and placed in the burrito right before my eyes, I knew that this one wasn't going to make it home.
With a minute left in the meter, I slowly peeled away the foil to uncover the perfectly moistened tortilla. My first bite was...well, let's just say that things moved quickly from here. Seeing a car perched for my spot, I knew that I had to take this show on the road and while it is not my policy to eat and drive, putting this puppy down was not an option. As a made my way home, each red light became a guacamole-filled moment of delight and each yellow light brought a smile to my still-chewing mouth.
LTDR has a simple menu, but what they lack in flare (16 pieces mind you), they more than make up for in flavor. An ample layer of cheese provided enough gooeyness to hold it all together, and the ever so slightly seasoned rice made a great base layer for the juicy pork and mushy beans, not to mention the guac and good (but not great) salsa. You have only one option when it comes to the tortilla (flour for all), but I didn't mind it one bit. Definitely worth exploring the menu on this place and for $7 and change, this little donkey packs quite a wallop!
DISCLAIMER: Juan Solo does not condone driving and eating burritos, and unless there is an emergency (flavor) situation, one should not operate a motor vehicle and partake of the awesomeness of one's burrito until one is safely at home. Think twice kids, unroll at home!
rolling on down the road,
