Quesonachorito

Whenever I go to the local burrito shop, I have to make that agonizing decision: burrito, quesadilla, or nachos. Now, I love my local Atlanta Burrito spot, Willies, but nothing on their menu helps make this decision any easier.

Free Birds (in Texas and in Santa Barbara, CA) has given us the quesonachorito to remedy this conundrum. They start off with a normal quesadilla but then they open it up, and fill it with the standard burrito accoutrement plus delicious homemade corn chips. One part quesodilla, one part nachos, one part burrito. Awesome.

Lets put the awesomeness in perspective. I was back in LA and a friend from Florida was visiting. Me, my friend, my brother, and my cousin drove up to Santa Barbara (about an hour and half) on the pretense of visiting a friend of ours. However, we didn't leave LA till about 3:30. We all new why we were really going. We got to Santa Barbara, parked our car, went to Free Birds, ate our quesonachoritos, and left. Extremely satisfied. More than happy with how we had spent the day.

When I told my girlfriend what I had done that day, she scoffed at me for driving over 3 hours so that I could have a burrito. Shes unenlightened. She doesn't know—not just any burrito, the quesonachorito.
