A Healthier Alternative to Fast Food
Restaurants that are attempting to give the public a healthier, fresher choice in what I’ll call “quick food” deserve a pat on the back. I discovered a new restaurant at a local mall yesterday, called Chipotle Mexican Grill. It’s Mexican food with a lot of healthy possibilities. The customer mixes and matches basic ingredients at the order counter, much as you would in your own kitchen, to create their meal. You can make a burrito, fajita burrito, burrito bowl, tacos, or salad, all using either marinated chicken, steak, pork, braised beef, or guacamole and black beans. Pick your toppings including three different levels of spicy salsas, pay and you’re on your way. Like I said, not bad for quick food. Kudos to Chipotle Mexican Grill.

Got something to say?
How is that different than highend salad bar?
It’s different in a few ways. First, it’s Mexican. Second, there are hot meat choices for the base. Third, they assemble it for you. You could almost say it’s like a Mexican food Subway in concept.
