I know I said I wasn't going to blog about chain restaurants but yesterday night I tried Chipotle for the first time. Everyone I know talks about this place as if it's the single greatest thing ever. So, I decided for my first blog entry I would write about my first experience there.
Menu Item: I got the Burrito Bowl
Items in my bowl: Rice, Barbicoa (which is a spicy shredded meat..probably beef), mild salsa, sour cream, cheese, black beans, and guacamole.
Total: about $8 (because the guacamole was extra)
Ok. My roommate Yelena is from California and she thinks Chipotle is nasty one reason because they use white rice. However, The white rice isn't a bad combination with the other ingredients. I think it actually give it a more upscale feel to southwestern cuisine (and Moe's). And, the great thing is the price is reasonable for a reasonable amount of food. Personally, I can put it away and I got full off of half of the bowl. So, to sum it all up if you haven't tried Chipotle...go. See if you like it for yourself, but in my eyes it's definitely something YOU GOTTA TRY!!
**also: the picture of the bowl may not look appealing, but don't judge a dish by its cover. It was really good!
