| - An authentic Texan experience is what you'll find at Tejano BBQ Burrito; at least that's according to my husband who happens to be Texan!
Nested in the heart of St-Henri on Notre-Dame Street, and using a preparation method similar to Subway's, Tejano BBQ Burrito allows you to put whatever the heck you want in its delicious burrito. If you misuse this power, you'll end up with one very fat dripping barely-holding-together burrito; but since when is that a bad thing anyway?
Offering a selection of salad bowls or classic (regular or XL) burritos, Tejano is equipped to please most palates; its protein options include chicken, beef, pork and a vegetarian chili (my choice!)
While their service isn't the fastest, especially when there's a lineup of hungry people who want to fill their burrito to the rim from a wide (I mean it, there are a LOT of options) selection of fillings, I appreciate that the clerks are not stressed-out machine-like slaves. My philosophy is the following; take your time, but it better be good!
The place offers some popular complementary Tex-Mex drinks (Jarrito, anyone?) and can sit about 10 people maximum. It's more of a take-out model than a fancy restaurant, yet my husband and I still prefer to grab a seat at the counter set up for their clients and eat right there and then (especially during winter).
It's a great place, a guilty pleasure really, and I would consider going more often if I had the self-control necessary to not stuff the tortilla with copious amounts beans, rice, chili, sour cream, guacamole and everything under the sun in the burrito. I want to retain my figure after all!
If you're a starving youth, go there; you'll get your money's worth of Tex-Mex deliciousness!
