| - We finally got to Toronto around 11pm and desperately needed some food. We did the 'ole YELP search for Indian food and it brought us to a place that was closed, BUT within that same very strip of stores, there was a Burrito joint. YAY! Meat-eaters and vegetarians alike can all rejoice in the mexican fare!
First thing we noticed was the beckoning of today's youth through the sounds of top 40 hits blasting through Speakers OUTSIDE the place. Kind of a rare thing for any establishment, especially a mexican one. I asked my friend Ardith Birchall about this, and she said they all do it in an effort to attract "the kids from the clubs." This is all fine and good, but the first song we heard playing over the speakers was that track "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers. Sooooooo...great strategy if you wanna get all the kids from the clubs back in 2005. Actually, they're probably real hungry after stepping outside for the first time in 6 years.
This is a popular Canadian chain of Burrito spots that all the folks (young and old...drunk and sober) hit up at some point in the night, so there's no need for me to get into the fact that they started to close up before taking our order, ran out of meat, (thereby rendering all power to the vegetarian) or forgot to put guacamole inside our burritos; but I WILL get into the story of just how Burrito Boyz came to be. It's a captivating one. One that we can all agree HAD to be told and will only become more and more enigmatic as the years progress. It's a story rich in heritage that will one day put Mississauga, Ontario on the map, along with every other town astute enough to embrace the famed Boyz of Burrito. Canada should consider itself lucky to be endowed with the brilliance of these 2 entrepreneurs and their majestic story can be found proudly displayed on the wall of any and all Burrito Boyz locations....yes, it's THAT good!
Here it goes:
Once upon a time in the late 90's, two guys had finished a long night of partying. They found themselves standing on a street corner when one guy says, "I'm hungry." Then the other guy said, "Yeah, me too. I want a burrito." And the rest is history...
(no joke. This is what it says on the wall of Burrito Boyz)
We ate in the van, cuz the "ambience" was killing us, but in all honesty, those burritos were tasty.
