So, Chipotle. Fast food, yes. Used to be owned by McDonald's, yes. But sources its pork from Niman Ranch (mmmm, carnitas). And tries to be better than the rest. And tastes delicious. And is coming to my neighborhood.
Did you see where they're closing Hawk & Dove? I wasn't a huge fan, but it was such a Hill classic. It's a shame it's closing. The Hill is losing so much of it's tradition. That being said, I love Chipotle. It's the only "fast" food I'll eat.
Oh Lord. I just ate Chipotle because of you. No, I didn't eat food at Chipotle, but simply put the entire restaurant in my mouth. The end.
Well, not the end. Do we consider Chipotle fast food? I'd sooner call those one-in-every-town mall "restaurants" (yes, those are bitch quotes) fast food. I mean, with Chipotle you can tell that they're *trying*, and you can see the strings, but to me it lives in that weird Shake Shack/Smashburger/In-n-Out purgatory. Maybe it's just the metric ton of guac talking. Who knows?
First of all, Chipotle is my favorite restaurant ever. Second, that video made me tear up. And I'm downloading that song. I am so very jealous there is a Chipotle near you - the closest one to me is two hours away!
Is it odd that I'm sitting at my desk crying after that? Chipotle has proven a fast food restaurant can be ecologically responsible and still thrive. I just wish others would catch on / catch up!

Do feel better, by the way.

ReplyDeleteI loved the video (and old Coldplay too)! So excited the Hill is getting a Chipotle!
