It was so good that someone copied them and opened a Roberto's, then someon opened Humberto's. After awhile we used to just say we were going to Berto's. Now there is an Adalberto's?

We used to get so high and go there. You could never understand anything they said through the speaker:

"BLAHHP!"

"I'll have a carne asada burrito and three rolled tacos with guacamole."

"BLAP BLAAAAHHHP!"

"Yeah, I'll have a large coke with that and extra salsa."

"BLAP BLAP."

Then you drive up to the window and there it all is. Better check it before leaving though.

Once we went through the drive through, held out a joint and asked, "What can we get for this?" Man, they just started shoving food out the window!

One time in the middle of the night I was coming home from work, drove into the neighborhood, and it was totally dark --- total power outage, no lights anywhere, which was kind of trippy. Drove through Alberto's, and there were 6 Mexican guys still there using 1 flashlight to serve food. Awesome.

One time I got a machaca burrito, took it out to the beach, was eating it, and bit into something squishy and minty flavored. Spit it out, and it was a piece of gum! I nearly barfed! Still went back a week later though.
