Answer 4

As far as I know, burritos are a mexican-american thing. I travel to Mexico a lot and have NEVER seen burrito on the menu unless I was in a very touritic area, such as Cancun or Acapulco (where Americans like to go)

Answer 5

Here is a suggestion; quietly calmly go back to resteraunnt - - - order your favorite, take it to go, then take it to a teacher of cooking at your local college or university. They can analyse it better than throwing a question like this out to an unsuspecting unknowing universe. And they might welcome the challenge (once banged a home ec minor) PS to be truly authetic it should contain an authentic Mexican. Ciao.
