If you're a little bored with your standard burrito order, you might want to head to Taco Bueno to get your hands on one of the new limited-time Dunked Chimichangas.
For those unfamiliar with Tex-Mex cuisine, a chimichanga is essentially a deep-fried burrito. Now Taco Bueno is kicking this already indulgent dish up a notch by turning it into a dippable treat. To create the Dunked Chimichangas, Taco Bueno starts with your choice of steak, chicken, or beef, and then pairs it with melted cheese, refried beans, and pico de gallo. The whole thing is wrapped snuggly in a flour tortilla, deep-fried until golden brown, and paired with your choice of Jalapeno Ranch, Chili Sauce, Queso, or Chipotle Cholula dipping sauce.
