Wahaca and El burrito are really close and a lot better. They also don't have irritating mantras written all over the walls.blkblkblkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13953441938303602187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-345850159163822296.post-50345453811512889802010-05-25T05:25:21.517-07:002010-05-25T05:25:21.517-07:00Yeah, this is supposed to be a cheap option in the...Yeah, this is supposed to be a cheap option in the States, isn't it?

El Burrito isn't far away either, so I'm much more likely to head up that way. Ten pounds will also get you a fixed menu lunch somewhere decent in that area, so it's way too much for fast food. Even £5 is something of a luxury for takeout lunch, so it's totally crazy. Glad you had a good one. Mine was all fine except for that crucial element: the meat! I'm sure it'll get sorted. Chicken next time..When I'm feeling like splashing out.blkblkblkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13953441938303602187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-345850159163822296.post-66852921205861194292010-05-13T01:45:13.593-07:002010-05-13T01:45:13.593-07:00This post is valid as a grand-opening-experience-r...This post is valid as a grand-opening-experience-record. I had the pleasure of eating at Chipotle yesterday (3 days after opening). Yes, the price is obscene: add guacamole and a drink and your lunch is at £10+. This is bad. However, I hope they'll learn that El Burrito on Charlotte Place is a good burrito joint and operates at about half the cost. I noticed that the people making the burritos/tacos/etc. are being trained. So we have to go through learning pains until they get the process right and smooth. Other than that, I ordered the Featured Burrito: Chicken with all the fix-ins. It was amazing. All of the ingredients were really really good. I have no complaints on taste and presentation considering Benito's Hat on Goodge Street makes half size burritos and charges a lot for it as well. So i'm against the Chipotle price, but I'm for their food.Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09067388899259889182noreply@blogger.com
