Signage arrives for Downtown Burritos Cocina Mexicana on 1st Avenue

A new era is closer to starting for an old favorite. Signage arrived on Friday for Downtown Burritos Cocina Mexicana at 69 First Ave. (The DTB is short for Downtown Burritos.)

As we first reported, Ivan and Mario Marín, the longtime managers (20 years) of Downtown Bakery, bought the longtime business (established 1990) earlier this spring when the owner decided to retire. 

This came on the heels of a DOH-mandated closure in February for Downtown Bakery operating with an expired health permit. The new owners then decided to spruce up the interior here between Fourth Street and Fifth Street. 

In renaming the business, the brothers mentioned the confusion regarding the inclusion of "Bakery" — people would call and ask about baked goods.

(Thanks to the reader for the signage tip!)
