| - I feel as though I need to apologize for loving Chipotle so much ... not sure why... maybe because they are owned by McDonald's, assemble their food like efficient factory workers, and may not be the most authentic cuisine?
Well, whatever the reason, I can't help but heart Chipotle!!!
All options are priced the same - be it chicken, steak, pork, or veggie - be it burrito, fajita, taco, or bol. WIth the veggie, you get free guacamole. I think the price for one serving is around the $8 range.
There are four types of mouthwatering salsas (corn, tomato, mild, and spicy) and you can ask for all 4 of them to be included in your meal. You are not limited!!!
I remember hearing that the pinto beans are not vegetarian because they are cooked with some sort of animal fat but the black beans are a vegetarian option.
The chips seem to be prepared fresh on site. I saw a woman frying up a batch and sprinkling them with salt and lime juice. Not a huge fan of the chips - but then again, I am not a huge fan of tortilla chips in general.
For some reason, my meal seemed smaller than my chipotle meals in the states ... not sure if it is just my imagination or what. I still felt a tiny bit hungry after finishing my burrito whereas I normally feel pretty satisfied.
The ingredients seem so simple yet when put together, you get a delicious mouth party. Yum!!!
When compared to other fast food options, Chipotle tastes better and seems healthier than $8 worth of fast food at a burger, chicken, or pizza place and is more satisfying and substantial than a sub place.
