This is the 1st ever perfectly scored burrito on Brian's Burrito Blog! Congratulations El Chupacabra, you've created a burrito that is above and beyond the vast majority of fellow burrito makers. Thank you!

I heavily recommend you make it a point to stop in at El Chupacabra. Not only is the food excellent, but the place itself is great just to hang out in for a few drinks. They're also known for their Margaritas and their juke box. Just don't let the Chupacabra catch you!

Eventhough Azteca is an enourmous chain (which I don't care for very much) they do a great job and make some pretty good food too.
