Bonita Is Closing
Meanwhile, the shittiest burrito place in the city, L.A. Burrito, somehow still remains open. We're going to miss you Bonita!
Says Brooklyn Based, via Gothamist
Bonita I on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg will serve its last taco on August 15. Owners Andrew Tarlow and Mark Firth, of the Marlow and Sons/Diner empire, have long had a contentious relationship with the landlord (”He hates me,” Tarlow tell us. “Always has.”) and the restaurant has never been able to get a full liquor license for the space, so they’re closing up shop. Get your plate of pork nachos and your sidewalk spot while you still can (or head to Bonita II in Fort Greene).At least we still have Papacitos and La Superior. That said, Gothamist is totally right about La Superior's tacos being a little too precious.

LA Burrito is worse than San Loco? You've never eaten Mexican food.

this finally confirms it. this blog is completely out of touch.
la burrito is a TACO joint. and it's awesome. especially on graham where you can still get 3 for 2.99.
go get your twenty dollar burritos and write up another stimulating blog entry. or just go suck off mark and andrew directly. tough day.
