I like just the basics, meat. rice, beans, ciltanro, onion and hot sauce in my burritos.

I grew up in LA and I still think Chipotle is bomb, for a more "Tex-Mex" version of tacos and burritos. Tiny local shops in LA have the best burritos, tortas and tacos I've ever had.

Chipotle is full of win

GreenPlease · 09-09-2009, 12:26 PM

^ probably the only reason I'd ever go back to LA: mexican food

UdubBadger · 09-09-2009, 12:50 PM

I'm on my way for lunch!

1. Freebird's owns Chipotle all day long.
2. It's funny to see people up north or anywhere outside of Texas (and other border states to a lesser extent) talk about Mexican/Texmex food.

I ate my Chipotle and remembered to take a picture after I finished it...dammit.

For Mexican fastfood I prefer baja fresh or qdoba. But nothing beats an authentic Mexican ma and pop joint. Chipotle FTL

i go/use to go to chipotle not because i'm looking for authentic mexican food, but cuz it's just damn good, and slightly mexican. i use to live in san diego, and now there's some real damn good legit mexican food. i love both.

GreenPlease · 09-09-2009, 02:07 PM

I've had really mixed experiences with Baja!Fresh. Some have been really good while others have sucked big time.

I friggin hate Moe's. To those who live in Tex: yes, you guys have it made when it comes to TexMex food, pitty those of us who are forced to eat chain mexican food

nightkhan · 09-09-2009, 02:09 PM

here's how i would build my burrito

the tortilla itself is almost 300 calories and 44 grams of carbs!

add everything else, sodium is now at 2200 mg

GreenPlease · 09-09-2009, 02:12 PM

sodium has reached critical level

Digital.James · 09-09-2009, 02:23 PM

2200mg... kill yourself now

UdubBadger · 09-09-2009, 02:34 PM

iPhone cam can't zoom out enough for this monster (plus I had to give some love for the orange fanta) but it was DELICIOUS!

cchan21 · 09-09-2009, 02:44 PM

any chains similar to Chipotle?

not really a chipotle near me.

Moe's southwest... wasn't too amazed by it last time.
qdoba is not bad, not near me either.
