San Francisco is the birthplace of the Mission-style burrito. Named after the Mission District in San Francisco. What makes it Mission-style? The size. It is roughly the size of your forearm. If it’s not ginormous, then it is not a Mission-style burrito.

Today, my contribution actually should be entitled “Sundays in YOUR City.” Yup, I spent Turkey Day in the City by the Bay, and I even got to consume a Mission Burrito, or two!

This is definitely the place for some great burritos.
On the first of Dec, I’m off to India for four months.
QQ QandleQueen says
I am completely unaware of a mission style burrito, but since burritos are my most favorite food ever I’m sure I would love one. And now I’m hungry… thanks a lot
Mrs4444 says
Thanks for the burrito education. If I could just eat one, then my education would be fully rounded. Oh, well….
Happy Sunday!

I love that sign. I can’t believe that I lived in SF for four years and never knew that those burritos were named after the district. Everyday I learn something new…
