SBRRP redux: Amanecer Mexican Food Truck

I have included food trucks in the restaurant project if they are always parked in the same place, as this one is. I saw someone mention it on social media recently and realized I had missed it when we did the SBRRP a few months ago. It is located on the southwest corner of 120th and South Boulder Road in the Lafayette Lumber parking lot.

I visited on a Monday morning about 10 a.m. in search of breakfast burritos. The cook had a mask, and there was a barrier in the window so that customers don't communicate directly face-to-face. When I ordered, he asked where I was parked and then brought my order to the car. There was a fairly steady flow of customers (who were giving each other plenty of space), but my order was ready in what felt like just a few minutes.

The breakfast burritos have eggs, cheese, potatoes, green chile, and your choice of bacon, sausage, or chorizo. I got two with chorizo, one medium spicy for me and the other hot for G. They were nice big, stuffed burritos for only $3 apiece, and they were delicious! I thought the ingredient ratio was just right (I like lots of egg), and the medium-level green chile was also just right for someone who likes a little heat but does not like her face to melt off. G liked the spice level of his hot breakfast burrito as well.

Amanecer also offers the usual tacos, tortas, burritos, quesadillas, and a few other specialties. I'd be happy to try one of everything. The Juarez hot dog looks intriguing!

The Amanecer menu. Breakfast burritos were listed on a separate board.

These are on a small plate, but they were big and nicely stuffed.

Delicious breakfast burrito with chorizo!
