Sidoh is a lovely new Mexican cafe on Olympic off of the main Sawtelle strip! My fridge was empty as I've been moving out of my Brentwood apartment, so I treated myself to a burrito and coffee for breakfast. Parking in that strip mall is pretty easy, and the guy working the counter was friendly and helpful. I got the Striker Burrito (has scrambled eggs, bacon, ham, bell peppers, onions, cheese) and an iced horchata latte to-go. The horchata latte was a bit sweeter and a little more milky than I would have liked it to be, but it was a pretty generous serving, and the cinnamon flavor was nice and strong. The burrito is BIG. I have seen breakfast burritos from places like Sobuneh that charge $20 for something that is essentially the size of a frozen microwave burrito. Here, the burritos are ~$15, hefty, and can easily last you two meals. I enjoyed the familiar, comforting combo of flavors--I like a little onion and pepper for texture and veggies. What threw me off a bit is that they use large chunks of what I think is roast potato in the burrito. I prefer smaller, crispier potatoes, tots, or hash browns, but I was surprised at how flavorful the potato chunks were. I also wish there was a little bit more meat; the pieces of bacon and ham (I think they were supposed to be wienies) were pretty undetectable. Aside from that, this is a great new addition to the Westside, especially if you are a person like me who would always prefer a humble burrito in the morning over a sit-down brunch.
