@infatuation

"Mama’s Luncheonette is a much-needed injection of life into Cow Hollow’s on-the-go daytime meal scene. This takeout-focused counter does breakfast and lunch right: their menu of halal breakfast burritos, fresh juices, and arm-length chicken tikka masala wraps with a side of curry are hearty without being so heavy they send you straight into a REM cycle. But the undisputed champ is the chicken caesar wrap. A stretchy tortilla is stuffed with tender lemon pepper chicken, romaine, and so much tart dressing you’ll get the stuff all over your cheeks with every bite. To experience wrap-induced transcension immediately, there are a few tables on the sidewalk. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
