Isonaga wins Big Del Burrito challenge

FALLBROOK — It took just five minutes for Chris Isonaga to win La Caseta Restaurant’s “Big Del Burrito Challenge” held during Fallbrook’s Avocado Festival.

This is the seventh year the restaurant has held the challenge and the first time Isonaga has attempted to eat the four-pound burrito.

Twenty-five people attempted to down the burrito this year in the one-hour period allowed. Sixteen succeeded and will have their pictures on La Caseta’s winners’ bulletin board for the next year. The winners will also have their names on a permanent plaque in the restaurant.

Isonaga won a dinner for two and an “I ate the whole thing – Big Del Burrito Challenge” t-shirt.
