/ck/ - Food & Cooking

san francisco bay area. not much to hate. the San Fran clam chowder in a bread bowl is corny and stupid. mostly its when food is bad, like lousy sourdough bread or "ghetto burrito"s: served at a store front where the cooks and cashier are behind plastic, and the burritos are made with doughy bland tortillas, unseasoned ground beef, flavorless runny refried beans, white rice, tons of grated cheddar cheese, tons of sour cream, maybe some salsa. flavorless, glorpy, way too huge, nothing lilke a proper Mission Burrito. sold mostly in poor areas of East oakland. its still a good deal in terms of calories per dollar, but a hot mess to eat. considering that just blocks away you can get an authentic mission burrito SF style at El Farolito, including mexican rice and a grilled flour tortilla with brown and burn marks to make it crispy.
