New York is such a big city full of bright lights and superstars, and you can get anything (and we do mean anything) you want delivered to your door at almost any time of the day or night. Great parks, bars, music venues, weather. Well, not so much on that last one.

There is, however, one thing you're going to have a hard time finding in Manhattan, or most of the tri-state area, in fact. Something we take for granted, and consume on a basis so regular it's beginning to scare us: the Mission Burrito. It can be found nowhere else besides the San Francisco Bay Area. This SFist has argued before that the Bay Area is simply another region in the Mexican culinary pantheon - try ordering a burrito six hours to the south in Los Angeles and you'll see what we're talking about. Even Calvin Trillin agrees we have the best, and we hear he writes for some famous magazine based out there.
