Best burrito in Rochester
Tuesday, April 24th, 2007I’ve eaten burritos at plenty of restaurants in Rochester but I recently ate what is hands-down the best burrito. I don’t say that lightly either. I rarely can pick favorites with anything. Favorite CD? “Well, depends on what mood I’m in.” Or “This is one I’m listening to a lot now but that’s just because it’s new.” You get the idea. I’m wishy-washy.
But no. This burrito was just awesome and I am hereby declaring it my favorite. It was the beef burrito at Sol Burrito, on Monroe Ave near Goodman. My two dinner companions were also blown away by their burritos.
Now there’s probably some pompous know-it-all out there that will say “I’ve lived in [insert U.S. town close to Mexican border] and this isn’t authentic Mexican cooking”. You know what else isn’t authentic? Yer mom.
That was intended as an insult but I don’t think it quite worked. Let me try that again… You know what else isn’t authentic? Yer face.
No, still not insult-y enough. You know what else isn’t authentic? Yer mom’s face. Yes! Perfect!
OK so where was I?.. I don’t know a thing about what’s authentic and what’s not. I don’t care. Montezuma’s Revenge is also authentic Mexican but I don’t see you going to the store to buy some bottled Mexican tap water.
I’m always open to the possibility that there’s a better burrito in town, but these are the other places I’ve eaten at so if you’re going to mention one of them, you’re wrong. I’m not saying they’re bad. I quite enjoy some of these places but their burritos are inferior.
