Burritolicious

What started out as a mundane errand to Harvard Square (7 minute stroll) ended with a brilliant decision by me! With Emily away doing errands, I was free to fend for myself for dinner. The options in Harvard Square are limitless: Wagamama, Crazy Doughs, Nine Tastes, Bartley's, Taste of India, Au Bon Pain, and so on.... I decided on Wagamama as a light refreshing noodle dish would be perfect for this hot summer night. I was about to enter the trendy import chain, when I was stopped in my tracks by some invisible force......CHIPOLTE!!!!

A burrito that weighs a solid 5 pounds with chicken, sour cream, cheese, beans, salsa and rice for 6.75! I love my burritos. I have eaten at the local Anna's, Bolocco, Qdoba, Boca Grande, and Burt's Bitchin' Burritos (ok that one isn't real) and none of them can touch Chipolte! Fresh ingredients, value, generous portions, Chipolte Charm, simplicity of menu (only burritos on menu), make this the best burrito joint around. The Chipolte Burrito paired with my Blue "Honey" Moon Summer Ale and my third floor porch on a perfect June evening made for a perfect storm of blissful nourishment!
