Chipotle send me some coupons.

 

there is a new location about 3 miles from me.

 

so I went there and got the three soft corn carnitas tacos.

 

I decided to eat them there as they didn't look like they would enjoy even a short trip to my house,

 

and a free Chips and Queso.

 

Ive had the carnitas burritos and brought them home and microwaved then to get them hot.

 

the carnitas at Chipotle is not fried at the end of cooking , like most Tex-Mex places

 

which for me makes the dish.   but it was not bad.

 

the tacos were over all OK :   corn tortillas , heated and soft , a little brown rice , some black beans , carnitas

 

the some hot salsa , cheese , sour cream and lettuce.

 

I didn't see any chopped onions 

 

the problem is that all the condiments are ice cold.   when added to the hot items for your taco

 

the net effect is a cloddish taco.

 

now that queso ;  seems like cream cheese w pimento , melted into a hot glop w some green bits in it

 

it was awful .   just to review ;  awful.

 

I dumped it out immediately .   the chips were thin , crunchy w no memorable flavor at all.

 

Ill stick to an occasional carnival burrito and bring it home to the micro when Im too lazy to go one town

 

over for one of the best carnitas burrito Ive ever had :  pork crisped up from a small hole in the wal

 

where very tittle english is spoken and all the fillings are home made.
