El Castillito = Super Good

There are at least 10 El Castallito's in San Francisco. I don't know if there is a connection between some or all of them but this one serves up one of the best burritos in San Francisco consistently.

It is super big, reasonably priced, they grill the shiz out of the tortilla, the meat is heated up for each burrito, avocado instead of guacamole at request, all sorts of salsa. It's pretty much the bomb. It also doesn't sit all that badly considering it's a 1000 calorie food injection. And, you can park in the Safeway Castro parking lot with no worries.

If you are debating the best way to get there directly from Pac Heights take the Fillmore straight down........Thanks Eli. I was set on arriving directly at el Castillito and not hitting market at all. After multiple loops in the Western Addition I failed and popped out on the East side of the Safeway. Eli was convinced Fillmore was the street but I didn't believe him, thought it would put us to far West. He was right. Fillmore is the ticket. (Get in front of the damn ball Dorn, don't give me this ole bullshit....there, that's the ticket).

Oh, and the massive slice of German Chocolate Lara Cake at Safeway for $1.50 is pretty much as good as the $6 piece at Plant. Word.
