When I saw this on the list, I was thinking that the chips and salsa either had to be pretty damn good or the rest of the food at Papalote had to be pretty unspectacular. I mean how would chips and salsa beat out something like a burrito or a quesadilla? The chips and salsa came with my order of a burrito so didn’t have to pay for the item on the list! Definitely a plus.
So I got down right to it. Gotta say the chips aren’t anything special but that fire-roasted tomato salsa…..BOMB. It’s smoky, it’s spicy, and very addicting. They give you a pretty small side of salsa. If it wasn’t for the burrito I ordered, I might have considered a whole order of salsa. And then there’s a good chance I would have spooned mouthfuls of salsa down my mouth. Next time I gotta remember to ask if they sell that salsa in bulk to go!
In addition to the chips and salsa, I ordered the a carne asada burrito. I would say it was good but didn’t think it was better than the burritos you can find on Mission. That is unless you pour the salsa on the burrito!
