BURRITO ELITO CARD MEMBER GONE WILD!

Believe it or not, we've got a Burrito Elito club member, Barb Leihy, who's eaten at the Royersford, PA California Tortilla 156 times since January 1st, 2008. 156 times. Can you believe it? Talk about making a decision and sticking with it.

So I caught up with Barb (I'm breezy) and I talked to her a little bit about California Tortilla. And this might come as a surprise, but Barb is VERY enthusiastic about California Tortilla. And funny. Here are just a few snippets from our conversation:



Me: Just out of curiosity, does your house have a kitchen?
Barb: Not yet—we just installed the outhouse last week.

Me: Rumor has it that you're a vegetarian. Is everyone in your family a vegetarian?
Barb: No, the dog ate the cat just the other day.

Me: If you could be any California Tortilla vegetable, which one would you be?
Barb: I don't want to be a Cal Tort vegetable because then my family would eat me. (Apparently this is a very violent household.)

Me: There are a lot of restaurants in Royersrford (I have no idea if that's true)—why California Tortilla?
Barb: Cal Tort offers great food, reasonable prices and spunky employees that make you feel like you're part of their family! Yee-ha!

Me: Do you ever take more napkins than you need?
Barb: Only when we're running low on toilet paper in the outhouse. (I'm beginning to think they like us because we have bathrooms.)

Me: Would you mind calling the guy who's been here the least and yelling at him?
Barb: I don't mind at all! And I'll take further action, if necessary. (I'm guessing this will in some way entail him being eaten.)

Seriously, Barb was incredibly nice and a great sport—we thank her from the bottom of our burrito makin' hearts for being our #1 Burrito Elito member!

FROM THE YEE-HA! FILES...
Cal Tort was voted Best Place for Vegetarian Food AND Best Casual Restaurant for Kids in Washingtonian magazine. How great is that? And how nice were you to vote for us? (Even if you didn't, pretend you did. It's all about getting credit.)

To celebrate this fabulous news we're having "Kids Eat Free Day" on Tuesday, July 15th. All kids 10 and younger will get a FREE kid's meal at any Cal Tort that day. The only rules are that for every 2 free kid's meals, there must be at least one paid adult meal and that the children must be present. Feel free to borrow mine.

But that's not all—for every kid's meal we give away that day we'll give one free kid's meal coupon to the Make a Wish Foundation; it's a great organization and we're thrilled to be part of it.

Thanks again for all your help—see you and the kids on the 15th! (Coming soon: Meat Eaters Without Kids Day.)



LITTLE KNOWN CALIFORNIA TORTILLA FACT

We have nearly 30 menu items that are vegetarian or can be made vegetarian by substituting vegetables for meat. Just ask Barb.



THE MADNESS CONTINUES...
You've only got 2 more Wednesdays left to show off your Rock, Paper, Scissors skills. Come on in Wednesday, July 2nd or July 9th and when you purchase an entrée you get to play RPS with the spunky cashier. If you win we'll give you a FREE Chips and Queso. If you lose we'll give you a 50 cents off coupon. And if you tie, you get to play again, but you have to play really fast. We've got food to make.



WE'RE PULLING FOR YOU
You're all going to be very excited about this news. Not only are we keeping the Fish Tacos on the menu until further notice, but our latest Limited Time Offer (called that in order to start riots in the streets á la Cabbage Patch Dolls), is another fan favorite: The BBQ Pulled Pork Burrito.

It's absolutely delicious and if you haven't had it, I'm telling you, it's the best BBQ Pork Burrito you'll ever eat. You've GOT to try it. Says the restaurant that just won best place for vegetarian food.


On that note, have a fabulous 4th!
