CHIPOTLE is open for business!

The biggest news in the White house this week is the much anticipated opening of the new Chipotle (that's Chipote-lay) restaurant in La Quinta! They specialize in mexican fast food that delicious. They keep the menu very simple: tacos, burritos and salads and that's it. In a Subway kind of ordering fashion, you tell them what you want, what kind of meat (carnitas, steak, chicken or shredded beef) and what toppings you want. I was turned on to this place by my Dad and have loved it ever since. The girls enjoy it too. Doug is not all that impressed but that will pass, I am sure! The opening was delayed a week so we are all chompin at the bit! Thursday was free burrito day and they gave away over 3,200 burritos. It's opening day Friday and we are set to go. It'll be chicken tacos for the girls, a carnitas burrito with rice, black beans, cheese, hot red chili and cilantro (thanks for the tip Dad!) for me and Doug will try something new....maybe a shredded beef burrito! YUM, YUM ....can hardly wait!
