El Burrito House

The first thing you should know about El Burrito House, a small storefront in the city of Bell, is that they make their own flour tortillas: stretchy, pillowy things that are soft and chewy and deeply flavorful. Those heavenly fresh tortillas are used to wrap all kinds of burritos here, breakfast and otherwise, but in the morning we zero in on their chile verde breakfast burrito, made with tender chunks of potatoes, well-cooked eggs, gooey streaks of cheese, and their spicy long-stewed pork chile verde. Think of it as a whole combo plate bundled up to-go. As with all good homestyle food, it takes a while to prepare, so if you’re in a rush, call in your order first.
