Burritos in New York are usually a sorry lot, especially with Kitchen Market gone, but if you are interested in sampling a burrito in the big apple that will get you excited about burritos again, run, do not walk, to Sue Torres' meatpacking district taqueria Los Dados for a lamb barbacoa burrito. The braised lamb is tender and just lamby enough, the tortilla is soft and delicate, and unlike a lot of burritos in this burg this one doesn't confuse quantity with quality. There's plenty of lamb, jack cheese, well-seasoned black beans, fluffy rice, and pico de gallo in this lamb barbacoa burrito, but not so much that you'll feel bloated after eating one.
I have lots more to say about what Torres is doing at Los Dados, so stay tuned.
