Quest to Bring the California Burrito to San Jose

Blog No Comments

There’s a late night legend in Cali known as the California Burrito. The problem is that San Jose taquerias  just don’t serve this delicacy.. let’s change that.

What’s a California Burrito? Dude, they are so cool. Broham. As described by Urban Dictionary (yes, I use very credible sources):

A delicious and mythical burrito found in Mexican eateries, also known as a Cali Burrito. It is native to Southern California, especially San Diego. The California Burrito consists of carne asada, cheese, sour cream and French fries or potatoes rolled into a flour tortilla. Guacamole may be substituted for sour cream, though this not a true Cali burrito, just an imposter (known as a Cyrus Burrito).

I’m on a quest to bring the perfect California Burrito to a local bay area taqueria. Let’s demand satisfaction or burn this city down!

The key components needed are Carne Asada, Fries, Sour Cream, Melted Cheese, Guac (Optional)

Know of anywhere in the Bay Area that serves California Burritos? I’m looking to find some local specimens for research.. if you’ve spotted any wild Cali burritos in the area, let me know and leave a comment (maybe even a link to the restaurant too).

UPDATE: Aye-Broham Lincoln! I just found a place that’s >1 mile away from me on Yelp that has California Burritos.. Cazuela’s in Saratoga (check them out on Yelp!) The problem is they’re not open late night.. so the quest continues for the perfect late night California Burrito. Stay tuned.

The BassJump by twelvesouth Rocks! (Review)

Blog No Comments

Introducing.. the BassJump:
A portable subwoofer for the MacBook that kicks out jams!

Listening to music on my MacBook Pro is a delight, but sometimes I wish I had more of a mid-range or thump for my music. If you’re like me and you wish that you could easily enhance your sound (wherever you’re at), then you might want to check out the BassJump by TwelveSouth.

Designed exclusively for MacBook, BassJump is a sweet, one-of-a-kind, go anywhere, USB-powered subwoofer that turns your MacBook into a mini sound system. One single USB cable delivers power and sound. Custom software blends the music coming out of your built-in speakers with the sound output of the BassJump for dramatically enhanced audio performance.

Last night I just purchased a BassJump from my local Apple store (in Los Gatos, CA) and since then, I’ve been rocking my MacBook speakers non-stop. The sound is great; don’t expect anything insane – but expect a reasonable improvement on your speakers. The BassJump really compliments the high level sounds by providing a little low range sound and some decent mid range enhancement. I also really like the software interface for the product, it’s smooth and I can adjust the sound on the fly – it’s not really needed often but it’s a nice enhancement.

This product definitely get’s the MichelBobrowski.com seal of approval – go buy it for your MacBook now from their site for only $79.99 (it’s a great deal):
