 |
|
| Anybody check out the new Mexican restaurant in Cheong-ju yet? It's located near Chung-Buk University. A good friend just opened it. Only serves chicken and beef burritos, but they are awesome! Great to finally have some Mexican food here in Cheong-Ju! |

| Yeah, went there for lunch yesterday and took the wife and mother in law. The owner is a great guy and the burritos are top notch. If you are in Cheongju make sure to give them some of your business as places like these can make that little bit of difference when living in Korea. |

Burritos? I'm there!
I'm not sure where Chung-Buk University is, though. Is that in the college area where all the foreign bars are at? Choon-day Choon Moon or whatever that area's called?
Let me know, thanks. |

I know where the university is, but can you give me some better directions? I know where the big Family Mart is, plus Pearl Jam.
PLEASE help me get my Mexican fix! |

| If you take a taxi, ask for Sachang Sagori Lotteria. It's on a T junction and you want to head straight down the smaller of the two streets on that junction, down the hill towards the university and you'll see the LA 25 with a big deck out front on your left. Casa Burrito is about 100 metres or so down that street on your right. |

Another way is to tell the taxi driver "Choong-Dae Choong-Moon". The driver will let you out near Subway and Lotteria. As Jaganath said, just walk straight past Subway and LG 25. Casa Burrito is on the right (same side as Subway). It's a small place so keep your eyes peeled. It has a red canopy that simple reads "Burrito" in English and Korean.
As I said, fantastic chicken and beef burrito (I perfer the chicken personally). They also sell Corona.
The owner is an awesome guy and speaks great English. |

Glad I'm out of that one horse hick town and at a nice public school in a pleasant Seoul suburb...  However, glad to see someone opened a two bit taco stand...do Cheong-juians even know what a taco is? I doubt it!  |

| We will travel near and far for burritos, but we need some help. We are not too familiar with all of Korea's geography yet, so any help will be gold. We live in Jeonga, what is our best method of transportation and directions to this place? Thanks!!!! Eventually, there should be a burrito night!! (You know like back home we had Tuesday Taco Night in San Diego) |

You were down here? Do you have a Thai wife/GF? If so, I think we met at Pearl Jam or the Attic one night.
Just to wet everybody else's appetite, here are some pics of the place and the food.
