Just off Halsted there is a tiny fast food joint tucked away from the rest of Greek Town.  It goes by Taco Burrito King and is part of a local Chicago chain.  It is tasty, fattening, cheap, and quick.  In other words, its perfect for the poor college student on the run.  Plus, the Mexican food actually tastes like Mexican food, not taco bell.

    The inside of the restaurant is painted with a yellowish hue and the store's booths design look like a throwback to a earlier age.  The cashier is tucked into the corner of the small room and the grill is set back behind the counter to the right.  The place feels like a dive, and the food is simple in the best way possible.  

     All the proper veggies and meats are cooked right on the tortilla on the grill.  A bit of guacamole or cream cheese tops it of, and the result is a filling burrito devoid of the fast food taste.  The best part is walking out with cash left in your wallet,
