just had chipotle for the first time today..
the one on the vegas strip, next to the imperial palace.
what can i say? chipotle sucks. let me explain.. i don't really mean it sucks. it actually tasted good. there was nothing about it (carnitas fajita burrito) i didn't like, and i might even eat another meal there while i'm in vegas. the thing is, it totally sucks when you compare it to a half-decent taqueria, even the ones i eat at in boston. let's be honest, the rice situation blows. also i'm pretty sure i got a bad wrap job by the bitch behind the counter. i tried to not let that influence my thoughts though. anyway, like i said i will probably eat another meal there this trip. it was tasty, but i think most things are, i'm the least picky eater in the world, and it shows to some extent.. but it doesn't even compare to half-decent real mexican. |

"but it doesn't even compare to half-decent real mexican."
Hmmmm, maybe thats because its McDonalds. I wouldnt say a big mac compares favorably with a burger from a local steak house. |

Re: just had chipotle for the first time today..
the only advantage it has over a real taco shop is that
a) you know the mexicans aren't spitting in your food just for the hell of it and b) you don't have to worry about the meat being pigeon or dog its fine for a quick, easy meal that you know isn't going to make you sick |

Re: just had chipotle for the first time today..
a) at chipotle you see your food the entire time. that makes it pretty close to impossible, unless you happen to be blind, for them to spit in your food.
b) the meat at many taco shops in san diego is very, very sketchy compared to what you find in a chipotle. believe whatever you want, however. |

[/ QUOTE ] i guess i was just comparing it to taquerias i've been to where it's the same kind of style. you go up and there's all the food in front of you, assembly line style |
