FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[tupac jordan]

Here in SeaTac airport for a layover and had Qdoba for the first time.

Options seemed good, but the clear digs at Chipotle made me and cringe a tiny bit. Like toppings being included for the bowl and the menu says (yes, including guac!)… then they put on a small dollop

As for the food, it was ok. It tasted like most other Chipotle competitors like Freebirds.. just sorta mushed together flavors that are somehow really similar and kinda heavy. Plenty of signs stating flavor but tasted meh

Felt like 70% of my bowl was rice and beans, which isn’t usually the case at chipotle when I go.

Chipotle > Qdoba.

I never had Qdoba but you can't accurately compare places if it’s at the airport location.

That’s a good point. If I ever try one outside of the airport I’ll give my thoughts in comparison to this experience.

Agreed. Also, I have a layover in SeaTac in a few hours too

Who's the guy that ate In N Out 18 hours later after it was in somebody's bag on a plane

It's not. They're super watered down.

You'll notice the color is even different after your cup is brewed.

Intenso, Stormio, and Double Scuro are the only pods I use.

I pretty much only do ristretto. Even better if you get one with the milk foamer, you'll love it.

Chipotle is vastly better than Qdoba, Moe’s, etc. but sometimes if im in the mood for Chipotle I like to get the Moe’s or something just for a change.

The frother is a must!

I like to use the sweet cream Chobani creamer. Tastes like a $5 cup from a cafe.

I apologize in advance.

I can’t stand SeaTac. Leaving now, gladly.

had to google
why ristretto? what’s the draw?

 

[jape]

y’all gotta ditch the pods though and get a fully automatic that grinds the beans instantly. it’s expensive but in the long run it will save you a lot of money for fresher and more delicious coffee.

That's just the flavor that spoke to me, richer, more intense. I prefer on the more intense end of coffees vs lighter ones.
