The tortilla is soft and nicely absorbs the green chili around it. Structure is solid without tears or leaks. Ends are folded-in without forming too much “bulk tortilla.”

In an interesting twist, this BB came with hash-browns on the side: a classic and smart move. The potatoes were perfectly browned giving a nice crunch which could be scooped up with chili and burrito to create a dynamite bite. I almost asked for more green chili to smother those puppies when the burrito was gone. They were difficult stop eating. That said, serving them on the side was a slight cop-out as a sharp burrito should stand alone, so I have to make a slight deduction.

Upon my first bite, I was immediately struck by the playful interaction between the soft avocado and crunchy pieces of bacon. These components integrated nicely with the eggs which made up the bulk of the filling. Eggs were slightly mushy but did the job.

Flavor abounds in this bad boy! Just as the avocado and the bacon played off each other texturally, so too did they dance in terms of flavor, with the buttery-sweet ‘cado standing up nicely against the saltiness of the bacon. This union was further amplified by the mild grease of the scrambled eggs fresh from the griddle. Although the green chili is described below, I felt it was good enough to deserve mentioning here as well (see Willie Wonka quote below).

Solid burrito with simple yet harmonious contents and a smother of some of the best green chili around town.
