We were waited on by "Candace the food goddess," who told us she'd been working at the joint for 33 years. Everything was a little hazy at this point because I'd just woken up, but there were truckers and cigar stores Indians and a good deal of talk about how we had to "experience the loveliness" of the breakfast potatoes. (They were pretty good.) Candace suggested the Eric's burrito because they put locally-made chorizo in it, so we split that one. It was on the saucy side, with stewed tomatoes and refried beans, and not much egg. Tasty in a worrying way, if you know what I mean.
