Here’s the narrowest and perhaps yellowest of Can-cún’s three carnitasless locations. It’s so short on space, you may well end up rubbing elbows with the dishwasher-fella at the wash basin in the back left corner. Breakfast available. Open late.

Despite occasional threats of gunplay and a curiously absent hyphen on its front sign, this particular Mission St. shop remains Can-cún’s flagship location. It’s up for debate as to which is more colorful: its décor or its clientele. And that sure is one deafening jukebox they have here. Be sure to have a beverage at the ready as you slather their sub-mediocre chips with some of the most ferocious green tomatillo salsa in town. No carnitas for you! Breakfast available, though. Open real late, even later than their other two local burrito-slinging entities.

Walking South of Market on unwashed sidewalks deformed, broken, and raised up by overgrown tree roots and years of neglect, I told Mark Ellinger the other night that I thought his and my blog were of the same spirit and similar in purpose; kindred spirits of a sort. After sleeping on it and thinking about it more today, I can't help but feel that, maybe, I egotistically put myself on a level that I don't deserve. After all, Mark's work is much more subjective, while the places I write about often place me in the role of an outsider discovering a place for the first time. Still, I would like to compare what Mark does and what I do, if...

The first place my brother Jeremy took me to eat was to Chika's on Irving St. in the Sunset District. Chika quickly made me feel like I was back in a homey mom and pop joint in Japan. It's so small and cozy! And the sushi was yummy! Their unagi was especially good....served warm! Make sure to use their bathroom for a warm Japan bathroom feeling. Kimochii~ii (feels good!) Sorry no pictures of the bathroom or the sushi.

Since there seems to be anywhere from 1-10 people slogging through their ballyhooed vegetarian burrito at any given time, Can-cún shares its superstar status with precious few other taquerias in town. And as is the case with many superstars, accusations of complacency lobbed its way aren't entirely based on sour cream, eh, grapes. Breakfast available. Open real late.

Taqueria Cancun is a favorite taqueria among locals and club goers in the Mission District. This restaurant has 3 things going for them, food is relatively cheap, its open very late, and food is quite respectable. I was doing the carnitas taste test today...going head to head was Taqueria Cancun vs La Taqueria. I had heard both places serve a mean carnitas. Since Im a carnitas type of guy, Id be happy to accept the challenge.
