Ahhh, the search continues

Talked with our nephew yesterday and had a long conversation regarding several things. He has advised the Sombrero has a good burrito. When grandson and I are hungry mid-afternoon, he sleeps late and gets up to the bright light of day about 11ish, the burrito does sound interesting to him. Me? Still a favorite with the nacho crowd. We know right where the Sombrero is: corner of Hwy 52 and Convoy at the Shell station. Usually crowded since, as nephew suggests, the food is pretty good. We wandered up that way and were waited on by a nice cashier, ordered the carne asada burrito pico.
I ordered, oh how I ached and drooled for this one, french fries with carne asada, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. The burrito and the fries came in pretty short order. I dug in to the fries and knew quickly that I would not be able to finish them. Mmmphing along, I got about 1/2 through and went to the lady and asked for a take-out box. Whew, that was good stuff.
Back to the burrito. "How is this one?" Roy nodded while chomping away at a mouthful. When he paused I asked, "One to ten?" He smiled and said, "Good 9." However, he did it mostly because of the pico. However, he added, "They put it only on one side."
Okay, so one side. Is that a problem? He said he felt it ought to have been put on the burrito so he got some with each bite -- he eats a bit from the left side, then the right side, then the center, since they are usually so big you can't get the whole thing in one bite.
That's the day. We waddled out of the Sombrero and went shopping. Not grocery shopping, I'm afraid, since full is not a good way to scout for menu items.
