"For those early mornings when you want a burrito packed with more meat than a steakhouse menu, La Espiga de Oro in the Mission is where to go when the sun has barely peeked over the horizon. The butcher-bakery-restaurant hybrid begins selling their chorizo-heavy breakfast burritos when they open at 6:30am. A griddled tortilla is filled with 80% roughly chopped chorizo, scant reservoirs of scrambled eggs, and occasional pockets of melted cheese. It’s not the most balanced breakfast burrito on the list, but for those who think the first meal of the day should include your entire week’s worth of protein, this is it." - ricky rodriguez, patrick wong, julia chen 1
