The menu lets you know exactly what you are getting, so no worries about the potato situation. The Arizona Burrito comes standard with chorizo, eggs, potatoes (more on these in a second), cheese, and roasted chilies. All ingredients come wrapped in a wheat tortilla that is grilled and toasty when served. The featured flavors of this burrito would be the chorizo and the potatoes. The chorizo is semi-spicy and not dry, just the right amount to go with the non-dominant cheese and egg. The potatoes, however, shine above all. I think they are a grilled potato like hashbrowns, giving a good crunch with each bite. More amazingly is that the potatoes line around the inside of the burrito, so no "last bite potato bite" experience.
Final verdict: The Arizona Burrito stands out as a good slow weekend morning burrito. Grab a coffee and enjoy the burrito on the patio instead of jamming it in your face while you drive home.
Haiku!

Burrito Thoughts and Other Comments
- Cost: $6.50 - most expensive yet!
- Weight: I'm already crazy enough - not bringing the scale to a restaurant...yet.
- I added guac, I'm unsure if it's worth it. You will want to taste the chorizo so I say "skip the guac, America."

Know Your Burrito Vocab
[1]On a bias - fancy talk for "diagonal" this actually serves a useful purpose. Usually each burrito bite pushes the remaining filling ingredients deeper into the tortilla, setting up your breakfast experience for a burrito blowout. The diagonal cut reduces the amount of filling that shifts down, possibly averting disaster.
