Today I ended up at Chipotle. I settled on the Chicken fajita burrito. This is a generous helping of sliced, marinated chicken breast, sauteed green peppers and onions, spiced rice, with the green and the red salsas, topped with shredded white cheese and sour cream rolled into a flour tortilla.

I washed it down with a cup of icewater garnished with two sliced lemons.

The Chipotle (pronounced cheep-oat-lay) is a new addition to the 5 square block area near The Children's Limbo. I was a lot more excited about it until one of the Partners here, Howard, told me that it's owned by the same people that own McDonalds. blech.

When they first opened (two weeks ago), they offered free lunch from 11:00 am until 1:00 pm. I stood in the 40 minute line and ordered two burritos. I acted surprised when the cashier told me it was free (someone tipped me off outside before I entered the restaurant), so that they wouldn't think I was some kind of porker taking advantage of their benevolent generosity. I even asked for it "to go" so they would not be wise to my subterfuge.

I ate the steak burrito in my car on the walk back to the office and then ate the shredded free-range pork burrito that evening for dinner.
