You guys should really give BK a try before EGC. I totally thought BK was light years ahead of EGC. It seems like EGC has its presence in the mind of Tucsonians, but I don't think it deserves it.

Guero offers the best Mexican hot dogs in the world, bar none. The rest of the menu is great, too. He'll probably stop by your table at one point during your meal to make sure you're happy with everything.
