3. Mixing meats is not the suck. In fact, it's quite delicious to get the chicken/steak "hybrid" combo. [/ QUOTE ] It's just a personal pet peeve of my taste buds, I think, and it ranges all the way from Chipotle to a $30/plate restaurant. In general, the meat is the dominant flavor and texture in the dish, and if you mix meats, they can clash or the dish can lack a focal point. Obviously, you need to make an exception for stew-type dishes like jambalaya, which are supposed to have different flavors and textures. FWIW, I can see mixing steak and chicken at Chipotle as being just fine, since they do have somewhat similar textures, but mixing say steak and carnitas would be an utter disaster. |

Re: Another Chipotle Thread
Anyone want to franchise out a Chipotle? Irvine, CA seriously needs one. There's all these damn businesses here, but there's not one in Irvine. The nearest one is about a 5 mile drive away. Considering there are like 4 Baja Freshes closer than that to me, it's too damn far away.

Re: Another Chipotle Thread
Has anyone here weighed out the difference in food between a burrito bowl and a burrito with the same ingredients? I estimate that they give me 15-20% more food when I order the bowl.

Office moved to Costa Mesa and there is one just a few mins away. I always go Carnitas, rice, black beans, corn salsa, cheese & sour cream. |

Re: Another Chipotle Thread
OP,
Does pinto beans mean refried beans or pinto beans cooked in the way black beans are? |

Re: Another Chipotle Thread
yea, wtf? first of all, Chipotle certainly hasn't changed at all in the last year, as far as I can tell it's exactly the same. second of all, panda express is one step above dog food.
