I haven't seen 'em (El Pollo Loco) for a while, but there used to be a few here in Austin.

oh man totally going to chipotle for lunch in 15

There's Pollo Loco in the Bay Area

looks like the only place pollo loco isn't is the mid-atlantic.

I don't get california dining. you guys have no crab cakes. fuck that noise. plus why so easy on the hot sauce? pussies.

one of my faves

In the phrase MERKIN STYLE TACOS it feels like "merkin" is a verb (synonym of accumulating) and "style tacos" is like some obscure fashion industry term for street cred.

Man, check out this guy with his crazy use of straps and leather...dude is MERKIN STYLE TACOS I'll tell you what.

I'm hungry.

but "merk"(/"murk"/"merc") already means something!

pube wig tacos

I don't get california dining. you guys have no crab cakes. fuck that noise.

dude there aren't as many crabs here. altho I do like crabcakes and eat them regularly. also hot sauce.

see hot sauce thread, I'm sure there's lots of Cali posters on there

''They all ate burritos''

the count is up to 400-something now
they blame a "norovirus" spread by a sick employee

aka "someone shit in the beans."

''Some ate chicken, some ate steak, some had rice and some had beans; there was guacamole, so we're not sure,''

aka "someone shit in the beans."

hey, it's organic!

aka "someone shit in the beans."

i'm hoping for the agatha christie-like "EVERYONE shat in the beans."

one thing is for certain: they all ate burritos

Kent State Burrito Massacre

OUTBREAK AT CHIPOTLE

two in one month?!?

The exposure has been limited to the La Mesa restaurant, located at 8005 Fletcher Pkwy., so students should feel safe dining at other Chipotle restaurants.

i beg to differ!

I used to go to Chipotle in college but then I discovered the shrimp tacos and burritos (with the white sauce!!!) at Taco Del Mar and never looked back. Although I went to Taco Del Mar yesterday and they don't have shrimp anymore :(

they have an El Pollo Loco in jersey now!

Chipotle having signs in its restaurants encouraging people to see Food Inc. is very smart of 'em.

they still suck

Compared to what at a taqueria or other burrito house?

(speaking as someone who doesn't choose sour cream, guac, or cheese)

To make too broad a sweep, I remember 10 years ago, 1999, a lot of my friends complaining about Starbucks and saying how Bush and Gore were the same.

Now, here's a chain that treats its employees well, pays them fairly, is careful about sourcing their food, and it's just not enough.

i don't think chipotle sucks. burritos are pretty good imo, not mindblowing obv but i'm always satisfied, not horribly expensive at ~$6, taste fairly fresh etc

xpost to Eazy: ??? - just sayin. But portion sizes at most taquerias I've been to are smaller, at least. Maybe not when you factor in the rice & beans, but I rarely eat all the rice & beans.

The problem for me w/ Chipotle burritos, portion-wise, was that one half a burrito *should* have been enough for a meal, but I would always tell myself I was going to save the other half & then take a bite or two & then rationalize housing the whole thing b/c what would the point be of saving less than half of a burrito for later? Once I found out what the actual caloric content was, I stopped eating there. I guess I prefer my Mexican food to in more manageable, compartmentable portions is all.

I've been posting too much about Mexican food today, driving myself crazy with longing in the process. I'm going to do something about this tonight (but not by going to Chipotle).

Then get the tacos at Chipotle!!!!! And say no to sour cream and cheese!!!!! And they sell tacos individually!!!

they don't know how to roll burritos at chipotle

xpost: No, if I'm going to Chipotle, I'm getting a fucking burrito. I'll just make sure those experiences are few & far between (my metabolism sucks).

Even w/o cheese, sour cream, guac and meat, this shit is still terrible for you. I have no idea how that works

Anything with a big flour tortilla and white rice is going to be high in calories! If caloric content is your reason to hate Chipotle, have the salad. Chicken+beans+romaine+tomato salsa - it really doesn't get healthier than that, dudes. Or only eat half the burrito.

My only beef with Chipotle is that a lot of their items (chicken, salsas) get overwhelmed by onion.

so there's no actual chipotles involved in anything this place sells??

SCANDAL

You mean there aren't any actual McDonalds' working at McDonalds? SHAME

burger king actually just a guy who really likes burgers
