"bbad - BREAKFAST BURRITOS ALL DAY! Our mission is simple — to serve the best and baddest breakfast burrito you’ve ever tasted. We take a gourmet approach to breakfast burritos and elevate simple ingredients into extraordinary dishes. Our menu is crafted with the kind of love and attention you can taste — no shortcuts, no nonsense. Our braised pork is slow-roasted over 6 hours for a perfectly rendered and tender bite. Our mushroom chorizo is pure, plant-goodness, free from soy, sugar, and stabilizers. Our potatoes pave is a two-day process to produce the crispiest potatoes ever. And all of our sauces are house made from scratch. Located inside the Pasadena Hotel & Pool. Entrance on Colorado Blvd. Parking validation."
