I wonder what flavours will be on offer?

“Salsa” is my favourite condiment. Salsas may be raw or cooked, chunky or smooth, spicy or not. They can vary as much in their texture, preparation and cooking method as they do in their flavors.
As far as I’m concerned the best salsa has the flavours of Mexico: tomatoes or tomatillos, onions, chiles and cilantro.
I don’t need to tell you what to do with salsa, but it’s worth mentioning that Richie's Fresh Salsa is just as good spooned over grilled fish, chicken or meat as it is over grilled vegetables, tofu or beans as it is piled onto a tortilla chip. Salsas may be hard to define, but easy to enjoy.
Especially on a weekend like this in Melbourne with glorious spring weather!

We know burritos were created sometime in the 20th

We know burritos were created sometime in the 20th century. Many theories exist about who created burritos and why.
Such as...
👉Juan Méndez, a street vendor in Chihuahua, Mexico, invented the burrito. During the Mexican Revolution in the 1910s, Méndez decided to wrap his food in flour tortillas to keep it warm. He realised wrapping the food in a tortilla was tasty and a good way to serve it.
👉 People from Sonora, Mexico, invented the burrito because of its mobility. Traditional burritos in Mexico were not as stuffed and full as they can be today and were easy to travel with.
👉 The burrito was invented in Ciudad Juárez in the 1940s by a street vendor. He portioned the food and wrapped it in a tortilla.
👍While their origins are unclear, burritos have stood the test of time!
Richie's burritos are traditional, humble, not overly stuffed and very delicious!
