AGH! Too crowded. I wish I stayed home.

Found them just to the left of the rotisserie chickens. They're very good. A couple minutes in the microwave and they're ready. The avacados will go on sale from Oct 21-27 and that'll be a good time for guacamole.

I'd rate them as "acceptable". Pico, chicken, cheese all dumped together. It seemed like they took a bunch of Kirkland products and rolled them together. Decent pieces which didn't necessarily fit well.

Still at 4 for $13 in Korea, can't complain. One problem is that the package they come in is rather voluminous. This makes freezing a bit of a challenge unless you want to loose half the cheese that comes on top. Also, defrosting and cooking them is a bit timely if you want to avoid frozen center, dry cracker tortilla syndrome.

Has anyone tried the California rolls in the same section?

I tried them last week.

The price is Good!

Taste wise , it was just OK. like steelrails said "acceptable". NOT bad but not very very good for a burrito.

IF they still have them a few months from now I'll give them a try again. Not good enough for me to buy regularly.

I was there today and people were going nuts over the cheese sticks. They were lined up for samples and grabbing them to take home.

They had the burritos at youngdungpo Costco also. I didn't get them because they were refrigerated, not frozen. I didn't want to eat 4 burritos for 4 meals in a row.

The burritos taste better if they are smothered in cheese sauce, guacamole, or salsa. Naturally, do it Tex-Mex style, instead of just saying they are "average" without offering a recommendation. It does make you wonder how much some posters do know about Tex-Mex food. Right?

I tried them.For the price and the "were not in the US" anymore factor theyre great. Like someone said theyre 13k for four. Certainly your best bet for burritos you cook at home and MUCH better than what the d bag spammers at Gringos are offering.

Gringos: You have to order a minimum of 6. Their chicken burritos are 5500 each BUT you must order 6 and spend a MINIMUM of 33,000. WoW !!!

Costco: 4 for 13,000 coming out to 3,250 each roughly. Add 2000 for transportation costs and whatever and it still comes out to no more than 4000 a burrito.

WoW !!!!

Looks like the spammers at Gringos wont be getting my money any time soon.

If you want a good restaurant burrito, O'Taco in Busan (near Kyungsung University) is really good.

I like the beef/potato burrito at Dunkin, its pretty good.
Starbucks burritos are good too.

Next to the burritos is a box of 3 croissant sandwiches for 9,990 won. The price may seem "worth it" when compared to other stores but the sandwiches aren't very good. There are some spreads included that are good, but just buy the lunchmeat and make your own sandwiches.

The whole rotisserie chicken for 7,490 won is a very good deal.
