An LA cafe is selling a Full Irish in a burrito as a hangover cure

A breakfast roll with a difference.

beans @jennymichellely on Instagram @jennymichellely on Instagram

NOTHING BEATS A hangover quite like rashers, sausage, egg, whatever other bits of a fry you fancy, preferably placed on top of or into a bread product.

A cafe in LA has appropriated the magic of the Full Irish and turned it into a bona fide cure for the horrors… in a burrito.

Let’s turn a blind eye to the inclusion of ‘English beans’ (and use this as an opportunity to reiterate our stance that beans have no place touching other elements of a fry) and the apparent inclusion of ham twice (it isn’t ham twice, of course. In the US ‘bacon’ refers to rashers, kind of).

The C&M Cafe used to serve their Irish breakfast on a a regular old plate:

But more recently upped their game and turned it into a burrito:

Paging all Irish cafes. Come in all Irish cafes!..

    @George Beckett: the Trump effect white people are superior than people who have different colour skin. It’s just Stone Age now. Thankfully the US justice system is still working. Just.

    @Deborah Behan: One swallow doesn’t make a summer. It’s trendy to make headlines when white people are being racist and frowned upon to mention other races being racist. But carry on.

    @Deborah Behan:
    I think the problem was that Indians have a reputation for living ten to a room. I suspect that’s what he was thinking. He was foolish to put it down on paper, though.
    As to making him attend that course, what a load of garbage. The day is coming when Irish people will be obliged to attend such courses in Afro or Asian or Islamic Studies. A few years back a lot of employers were employing ‘diversity trainers’ (Guess what, they were Africans) though one sees less of that nonsense recently. I’d sooner spend a week in ISIS controlled Syria rather than attend such a course.

    With all due respect to everyone involved in this minor incident, how on earth does this tiny vignette of western life constitute relevant news content for the Irish public at large? Its a piece of fluff story even if you live in america, why would anyone in ireland have the remotest interest in the views of 1 delinquent american? Weirdness to publish this fluff as a news story imo

    Explicit racism like this is easy to tackle with legislation and penalties. It’s the more subtler forms that the perpetrator themselves sometimes isn’t aware of that are more problematic for society.

    Never mind the crime, the sentence was great. Educate the person.

    We should have the same. You were drunk driving? Well, penalty points and one course in safe driving with a required 70% pass rate. You were claiming welfare illegally? Fines plus a course in how society works etc.

    Every time they make a crime they learn from it. Forcefully.

    Air b n b is a pox of charges. Booking outside the currency on your card? Air b n b will hit you with another 4% unavoidable currency ripoff on the currency on top of the 15% already high renter charges. Take a screenshot of the room, crop it and use Google image search to find the property on a property site with no renter charges. Many properties are listed on other sites.
