Covington http://linneacovington.com/food/?p=285 pork-burritoWhile spending time with my grandmother in Denver, Colorado, we did what we usually do–we went out to lunch.  This is always an event because my grandmother can never make up her mind about what she wants to eat.  So this time, I merely said “Mexican” and she twittered about this new place that had opened up in one of her favorite, now defunct, breakfast spots in Aurora. 

El Tequileno was everything a Mexican restaurant should be: cheap, spicy, big, and meaty. I got this shredded pork burrito in green chili sauce. Superb!  Right now, this is all I want, but know in New York, green chili doesn’t exist unless I make it.  Oh well, at least I have found decent tacos.

(On a side note, my grandmother was just tickled when the owner of the joint flirted with me, which resulted in 50 percent off my meal and a free margarita.  Now she wants to take me with her EVERYWHERE).
