​This is the only thing in town that's coated in wax that we'd totally still eat. Can you name this item and the San Francisco-based food business that sells them? Try your hardest in the comments below.

SFoodie readers are closing in on last week's Mystery Spot, but the exact answer hasn't yet been found. Hop over there and give that a try, too, after you've mastered this one.

​Here's our current vote for most unusual burrito in town, but what is it exactly? Name the burrito and the food truck that serves it in the comments below, and we'll let you know if you're hot or cold.

Strangely enough, last week's Mystery Spot still remains a question mark -- until you hop over there and crack it, that is.

​SFoodie readers are remarkable in their abilities to put the correct name to almost any mystery we present, and so this might be one of the most deceptive-looking pieces of food we've served up yet. Can you identify this item -- as well as the SF-based eatery where we shot this photo? Please offer your best guess in the comments below.

Last week's Mystery Spot was quickly and easily solved by Melissa Chung, and today we offer her a virtual high five in celebration.
