El Gato Viudo Burritos

El Gato Viudo Burritos

Viamonte 985

About 10 yards from Pelegrini on the Lálliance side of 9 de Julio.

Mexican Burrito House with a decent selection of imported beers.

Corona, Negro Modelo, etc.

Mexican owned and operated.

Juarez, Mexico style, homemade tortillas and burritos.

Inexpensive and very close to our haunts!

Unfortunately the only night that it is open is Friday night but you can have a late lunch until about 6 pm mon.. Friday!

Unheard of in BA!

I will be hanging out there on Friday nights.

Sort of my new office for now.

About 80 yards from La Mad.

Good guys.

Anyway, try it out.

Tell Ariel or his girlfriend Lidia that Ramiro sent you.

I liked the mushroom, cheese and beef burrito a lot.

Beats the shit out of California Shit Burrito Kitchen!

Take Care,

What's the price for a comparable burrito like in CBC?

Thanks TL,

This is exactly what I was looking for.

[QUOTE=Trampa;415589]What's the price for a comparable burrito like in CBC?[/QUOTE]I had a special that was 2 burritos and an imported beer for about 9 bucks!

Try Negro Modelo beer!

TL.

P. S. CSBC. Their tortillas are so hard that I ended-up tossing it after one bite!

The meat is super salty and very poor quality.

You can go to Chipotle in the states!

TL,

Are you going to be there Friday evening / night? If so, any idea what time you might be there?

Thanks, Bob

You know I am linguistically challenged but is a gato-burrito anything like a tuna-taco?

[QUOTE=AllIWantIsLove; 415623]TL,

Thanks, Bob[/QUOTE]I could be there around 8:30 if anybody wants to stop by.

Would be good to see you Bob!

P. S. El Gato Viudo means The Widowed Cat.

[QUOTE=TejanoLibre;415646]P. S. El Gato Viudo means The Widowed Cat.[/QUOTE]I was making a play on words, playing on the slang: cat, pussy, taco, burrito.

I must have been speed reading!

If your around you should stop by after 8:30 if you can and we can drink a beer or whatever.

Eat a tuna taco!

I should be there at around 8:30 myself.

Take Care,

Hoping to run into the legendary TL, I stopped by last night.

I ordered two burritos: one with shredded beef and the other with ground beef & potatoes. What's interesting is that the burrito did not come with either mexican rice and / or pinto bean filling. Anyway, the food was good and I ate everything up in a couple of minutes. Don't forget to order it spicy!

A quick review of their menu said that they also serve nachos, guacamole, quesidillas, and rellenos.

Cheers!

P. S. I just saw TL's number in the previous post. I think I'll just try to give him a call.

I was in the hood but I was at the movies on Lavalle a few blocks away.

The Mechanic.Jason Statham. Good movie!

Anyway, feel free to call me and we can get together.

That goes for anybody that is in town.

Gentlemen!

Went to El gato today after a bland casa session. (info in the non critic thread).

The food at El gato is really, really good.

I had different fajitas and burritos, and the spicy salsa was there as well in small plastic cups, so you can dosage just how much you want.

I like my food spicy (I eat Thaifood on an average 3-4 times a week) and everything at the plate was to please.

I talked to the Mexican girl who cook, and she starts at 8 am in the morning to prepare everything on the menu "day fresh". If you have ever experienced the horror of prefabricated factory guacamole, then you also know the taste of fresh made, advocado squashed ones. It's a different game. And this is the real thing.

The guy working in the restaurant was also a cool guy, and nice to chat with. Had enough beer and food to roll out of the door, so my only thing to add to this thread is: Try this small and genuine Tex Mex restaurant if you like genuine Tex Mex food. You will leave full and with a smile on your lips. Just as I did.
