FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[SC kid]

You do know Chipotle isn't supposed to be MEXICAN food, right?

I don't know much about Chipotle but i mean any place that serves burritos or anything like that.

I'll go to a non ff spot for that stuff.

Again, not saying it's bad but I dunno, just a thing.

Stops bullying the kid it’s Mexican food.

Never noticed that part. Point still stands. I don't go to Chipotle with eating mexican food and I think most have the same sentiments.

 

[lawdog1]

There's this other Mexican fast food restaurant. Someone gave me a burrito bowl from there and I do not know the name. It was pretty good. Anyone know?

We have a few chains out here that do burrito bowls. Rubio’s, Wahoo’s and Cilantro. Cilantro is the most like Chipotle.

Also

Chipotle is one of the first chains of fast casual dining establishments.[16] Competitors in the fast-casual Mexican market include Qdoba Mexican Grill, Moe's Southwest Grill, Rubio's Coastal Grill, and Baja Fresh.[17]

Again I could be wrong that's just what I found and I've only eaten there once.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Yeah. Nobody is going to Chipotle saying "fam, I'm in the mood for Mexican today"

I don't even think they ever promoted that.

TexMex

They serve Burritos, Hard Tacos, and Nachos.

I like Baja Fresh, but all but one of the locations near me have closed down.

My lady isn't home tonight. Dk what to have for dinner. Forgot to take anything out to defrost .

Man that is why you have the Frescheta in the freezer for such occasions.

New Chipotle employees be on some BS.

New dude was doing his best to not misuse that slotted spoon. I saw bruh put like 4 beans on this chick bowl and we both looked at him like he was crazy. Skimping so bad I had to ask for double chicken and steak. He nade sure to give me the fattest glob of sour cream tho

Got a Chipotle walking distance from my house, I don't even bother going anymore. You would think the food was coming out their check.

.

Yep. I also like to keep canned tuna on hand for similar reasons...

 

[freakydestroyer]

Try to get served by someone heavier, they are more likely to give you more. Don't go to a skinny college girl.

 

[titang545]

Who been to IHOP fa da 4.99 all u a eat pancakes

I normally always hit it up, but it happened after the new year on the slim down. I was like SOB, I was off 3 weeks in December, you couldn't of had it then.

Nothing extreme about how terrible chipotle is. Between the customer service and the food overall just not being that good, I have had way more bad experiences than good.

They haven't been looking to good in the news with the various people getting sick either.

 

[freakydestroyer]

One time I saw a Chipotle employee throw away a good burrito because she drizzled the wrong salsa at the end. She said she had to toss it because it is company policy. I thought damn what a waste.

Let steak come to room temp and season it. Pop in the over at 250 for 30 mins. Let it rest for 15 minutes. Heat the grill pan until smoking, then cook the steak 4 minutes on each side without touching for the doneness I had. In the last minute and half, baste it with butter

Vegetable chowder topped off with shredded Cheddar Cheese and hot sauce...

You don't have a choice on who to go to. It's whoever behind the counter

There hasn't been any sicknesses in months I believe. They're fine.

The hell.

You can't select who makes your bowl

I pretend that I am ordering for someone so I am waiting for their text and let whoever is behind me go first.

 

[titang545]

Ah, yes. I remember doing that. The things we got off the registry that I’ve used the most are Crock Pot, Waffle Iron and Rice Cooker. (Rice Cooker has been used much less in recent years now that they have those 3 minute microwave rice pouches).

We got a breadmaker over 10 years ago and still haven't taken it out the box.

However that waffle maker, you can make some insane cheese eggs with it. Crack the eggs mix them up, wait for the waffle maker to heat up. Spray nonstick on the top and bottom, pour the eggs in. Then sprinkle various cheeses in the eggs, the waffle maker will cook them nicely. Use a fork and lift the waffle cheese eggs out and sprinkle with tabasco sauce.

Yellow mustard is trash.

Spicy Brown though

Just making sure you aren't referring to the jalapeno French's mustard right.

For how much it's consumed in America, ketchup really only has a few universally acceptable usages.

Burgers, fries/other variants of cooked potatoes, and egg sandwiches (even that one is controversial).

Using ketchup in any other context is a huge red flag for me. Odds are that person has the taste buds of a little kid. Stuck in the "yummy" phase type. Can't go out to eat or talk about food with these types. Gonna go nowhere fast.

Ketchup from what I hear is great for a lot of do it yourself sauces.

jjs07 Concur District Taco ****s on Chipotle every time.
