. "I like Chipotle. Vegetarians get free guacamole, and now they have a (so-so) brown rice option. Tasty burritos the size of swaddled babies.\n\nHowever: one or more of the following problems is a near certainty in the last year or so:\n\n1. Cross-contamination of fillings: bits of meat spilling out of someone else's order into my vegetarian order; meat-greased hands grabbing my ingredients, and my burrito being dragged through the slime of the dirty counter from end to end.\n\n2. Incredibly long lines even at odd hours. (So I guess they don't need to improve!)\n\n3. Some ingredients have run out. This is especially fun when you wait in line for 15 minutes and realize they really can't make a complete burrito after all. And even when the missing item is a major ingredient most people expect (like rice) they don't announce this to the line: they let everyone find out the long way by asking for rice.\n\nSo I may go back occasionally--but only at REALLY odd hours; maybe late morning? Times when they are clean and well-stocked, hopefully."^^ . . . "0"^^ . "2013-04-26T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ . "0"^^ . "1"^^ .
