"I don’t even know which burrito I love more at Alan Delgado’s terrific Brooklyn takeout spot — the Colorado with guajillo‑marinated pork and ancho chiles, or the Verde with brisket and potatoes in a serrano‑tomatillo verde (between $8 and $11). I went twice in a week and got four of the five burritos to share — they’re a revelation. How does Delgado make such incredible flour tortillas? Lard is surely a factor. This little gem lets you watch tortillas pressed to order, debate which burrito upstages another, and add as much hot sauce as your heart desires; it feels like a place that will keep its shine well past its early days." - Bettina Makalintal
