The weather was just about perfect here today so Mrs. PT and I headed to the park with a couple of burritos from Freebirds. I consider them the original BIG burrito restaurant since I had my first one back in 1997 with them. Since, I’ve also fallen in love with the burritos at Chipotle. But today we went old school. What’s your favorite big burrito restaurant?
