NORMS #3

After a disappointing morning, due to the fact that the burrito I was truly looking forward to eating (Carl’s Jr.’s country breakfast burrito) was no longer available because from what I can gather from the 92 year old lady behind the counter, “ They were just not that popular Honey.” Well shit. So I meandered down Magnolia Blvd. From North Hollywood to the little sleepy town of Burbank on witch I stumbled upon a little greasy burger stand/dinner that boasted “we serve breakfast all day”. Being nearly 10:30am I know that time is running out for this allusive creature of the morning, so I stop. Norms #3 by name, and with no relation to the large corporate owned chain, this Burbank staple has one of the broadest menus around. Upon ordering I look to find the burrito section, I order a simple bacon and egg with a medium Coke. Then it hits me,
Man behind the counter “ Do you want some beans in the burrito?”
Did he just say what I think he said?
Me “What?’
Man behind the counter “Beans, you want ‘em inside?”
Me “Yas, Yas, I would love that”
Now giddy, I find a booth and sit down to reflect on what is going to happen next. The meal comes delivered to my table with a knife and fork. Na, I will not eat this said burrito with utensils I will use the ones God has given me. I tear into this large sized burrito and find that it has a perfect distribution of all ingredients; egg, bacon, cheese, potato (not hash brown), and now beans. It’s hot, soft and crispy at the same time in all the right places. A great step up from any fast food joint.
