Chipotle is coming to BR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jgreco15]

After living in Dallas for a few years and experiencing Chipotle on a regular basis, no other burrito place has ever been as good. Screw Moe's, Izzos, Freebirds, Bullritos, all of em. Chipotle is where its at! And now, finally, Louisiana will be getting its first Chipotle. Its somewhere near the LSU campus and aparently is almost open. This place is so good that I go way out of my way sometimes to cross a Chipotle when traveling. I would be willing to bet that a lot of people around here don't know what it is but I guarantee that it will catch on quick. During the hockey season, I pass through BR almost every weekend and now I know where I'll be stopping for lunch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I moved to Lafayette, I wanted to open a location in Louisiana but they don't franchise.

I was talking to my Fiancé yesterday whos in ohio by her mom and i asked her what she had for dinner her response was:
Omg i had some Chipotle and it was so good.
I've never heard of this place before but she made it sound so good.

Yep, I walk past it every day. Looks like it's almost done. There's a Five Guys going in right next to it that is supposed to be open within a few weeks as well.

Oh hell yes! I used to eat there when I lived in Cali...

I once roomed with a guy who SOLELY ate: Cane's, Chili's, Which Wich and Chipotle. It must mean something.

Yep, Im kinda siked. Two new things close to campus to eat for lunch. Also the empty space next door that used to be The Gap is going to be Massey Outfitters new Baton Rouge location.

I was talking to a relatively savvy former politician who explained to me the reason Chipotle wasn't coming here. 90% of it was kickbacks and one time only political campaign donations to quickly get through some process at the state level (don't ask me, I don't know). The other 10% was bribes.

God Bless Louisiana.

Either way, great news! Love some chipotle.

Better stock up on some Chipotl-Away!

I love Chipotle! Ate there weekly when I lived in Minneapolis and try to hit it up whenever I'm in Houston. Hopefully they'll put a few more around the city.

That's some damned good eating for sure; way better than Q'Doba to me.

Just got back from Mexico and, unfortunately for me, it pales compared to the real thing.

Definitely enjoy it!

When I'm next in BTR I have a place to grub outside of Whole Foods.

Good to know!

I had it 2 years ago in Florida. It's definitely some good eating. Supposedly we are supposed to be gettin a panera bread by whole foods soon. That's another one I'm excited about!

Right across from WF is Zea's and Mugshots. Mugshots is out of Mississippi.

Heard the same thing about Panera bread....where is it going to be located??

 

[W1nds0rF0x]

Without trying to sound like Skiney, "Out Daily Bread" out on Fla. has much of what you might find at Panera and they are locally owned.

From what I read a while back its supposed to be by the chase bank on corporate right past the whole foods shopping center
