El Metate
2406 Bryant St, San Francisco, CA
description: Lets just start by making it clear the Metate is a masterful burrito. It hits all the checks. Great quality ingredients. Check, the carnitas are crispy and juicy. Execution? Check. Look at this burrito, it is a distribution work of beauty and the only burrito that is consistently cylindrical with a circular crosssections. As a self-proclaimed burrito crosssection expert, this is one sexy thing. A nice finish? Check. Similar to farolito, metate takes the time to sear your burrito giving the outside a nice crispy umph. Salsa isn't too shabs, always go for the green. Another interesting fun fact is this is quite a small burrito, "petite" if you will.
