The Mission burrito
1961

Somebody in the Mission decided a burrito should be a full meal in one hand: a steamed flour tortilla, rice, beans and meat, wrapped in foil and built to be eaten standing up. El Faro claims 1961 and La Cumbre claims 1969, and the two have been claiming it at each other ever since. The format left the neighbourhood and became what most of the country now means by the word.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
