It’s been very busy around here, with the recently announced New York Street Food Walking Tour, and a bunch of other things to do before I head to L.A. next weekend.
With things being so busy, I went to one of the best street food carts within walking distance of my office.
Today’s Lunch is a spicy pork burrito ($6) from the Tacos y Quesadillas Mexico cart on the east side of 9th Ave between 58th & 59th St. For people who think 9th Ave is out of the way, it’s only a block away from the Columbus Circle subway station.
Tacos y Quesadillas Mexico is mapped in our NYC Street Taco Guide.
This had to be one of the fattest burritos around, although it was not too wide. Short and fat, but jam-packed with food.
The spicy pork was appropriately spicy, and was stewed in a nice Mexican sauce.
To cool things down a little, there was sour cream, guacamole, rice and beans. Not only did this cool down the spiciness a bit, but the sour cream and guacamole gave the burrito a creaminess that I didn’t expect.
This was a very tasty burrito, and at only $6, it was an excellent value for lunch.
