A Burrito for Breakfast in Battambang
I've never been big on the idea of a burrito for breakfast, something about the combo of egg and tortilla turns me off, and accordingly I have never until Battambang eaten one. This one appealed to me because I love Mexican food and because it seemed odd that I'd find it in a town no bigger than maybe 40,000 people and not really a tourist destination of great import. You could get the burrito in various arrangements and I had mine with the works; hashbrowns, egg and bacon. It arrived about as you see it now, except for the one incision on the bottom left. I was hungry and went at it before Hilary reminded me to take a picture, which she's been great at. The salsa smeared across the top was actually quite respectable, better than Reiser's anyway, probably because it was fresh. As for the ingrediants, well, they were respectable but not above average really. I prefer my bacon a bit crispier and with less fat. In the end it was good enough tasting to get 3 forks but later that day Hilary got a purticularly vicious stomach ache and had to stay in while I went out to check the sights (read the other blog for details). She insists that it was dehydration got her, but I think it was the food. My stomach ache didn't come until the following day and was almost certainly due to dehydration as I spent all the previous afternoon hiking around without any water what-so-ever, like a damned fool. I paid for this for the next week. Stay hydrated kids!
