An emphatic and slightly deranged journey into the mind of one Ms. Connie Shao.
Location: 2414 S Vermont Ave in L.A.
SO. We went to la barca, on Vermont - if you didn't look for it while you were driving by you would miss it admist all of its mexicano surroundings, hella local, hella part of the community. It has a huge sign on the outside that says "La Barca," two small windows with bars over it. the moment i stepped inside it was CHAOS. Super loud on the inside, people shouting, laughing, fillllllllllllled with hooomans. and families. and hella people being rowdy drunks.
We met up with two of Traci's friends, who had already begun drinking, alas it was happy hour, and then of course we got drinks for the whole table. Hella margaritas. strawberry, peach, and peach banana. and pina coladas. $2.95 per drink, all quite strong.
Tons of choices on the menu - I decided on the coloso burrito, which had everything you could want in a burrito - guac, sour cream, cheese, lettuce, rice, beans, EVERYTHING. A much more well-rounded burrito compared to the other burritos, which is why I decided upon it. Evan and I both got it. And when it came, it was big enough to feed a small family. I would guesstimate that it was at least 3 or 4 pounds, and there was melted cheese and sauce on the top. huge tortillas, my thoughts. I ate a little less than a third of it. and then I ate it for 2 meals after. I went out to dinner the next night so I didn't get to eat it then, but the next day I had it for brunch, lunch, and dinner. It was great.umm.. That's all. Really long story. The point of the story. This whole burrito cost me $8.95, and it was huge. The size of my head.
[this is the work you get from me when i am not in a funny-woman mood. remember, low expectations, the key to success!!!]
UM OK SORRY THIS WAS LONG. JUST SUMMARIZE IT AND PUT IT ONLINE. OR NOT. NO HARD FEELINGS. CAPITAL LETTERS. NOW I'M JUST RAMBLING. AND IT'S GREAT TO TYPE IN CAPITAL LETTERS.HUGE BURRITOS. HELLA BURRITOS. oh. also there were chips. and salsa.
Summary: huge burrito. family friendly environment. great deals on drinks. strong margaritas. hella good environment, positive vibes. fun times!!!!!!
i would go back. :)
