Calexico









Gorgeous, Mex. grub made fresh at their newest cart on 25th. Street and Park Ave. South. The offerings are slender though cheap, thoughtful and made to order. Our two burritos pictured on the grill were the Calexico Carne Asada which was good grilled hanger with rice, beans, cheese, pico de gallo and avocado crema on a fresh flour tortilla for $8. I added on guacamole for an extra $2. My friend ordered the black bean burrito for $6 which had the same black beans, pico de gallo, and cheese with chipotle crema instead of avocado crema. The burritos were huge and delish. The other options are pollo asado and chipotle pork. Both are $7 bucks. Other add-ons include chips and salsa, Mexican rice and roasted tomato salsa all for $1-$2 bucks. You can also make any burrito offered served in a burrito bowl with a small salad.Take this good grub over to Madison Square Park for some alfresco dining and you have a lovely lunch.
Must Go!
