Goodness Rolled Tight & To Go At Gastown’s Burrito Bar

tacofinochickenburrito-1493

by Joey Armstrong | Whenever I’m in the general vicinity of Tacofino’s Gastown location, my husband will send me a text that just says “burritos?” – a loaded hint that I should bring home some crispy chicken burritos from the restaurant’s little Burrito Bar. Filled with crispy karaage-style chicken, guacamole, rice, shredded cabbage, cilantro, black chili mayo and sriracha, these beauties are pretty damn satisfying. Always ask for a side of salsa verde and proceed to smother the burrito in its deliciousness.

There are a few seats in the tiny burrito bar, but we get ours to go, and either eat them at home with some Netflix or bring them to the park with some aptly named Park Life beers that we get from Bomber, our local brewery.
