Not all it's cracked up to be.

I finally did it.

After two years of waiting, I finally ate at Chipotle.

I promised to blog about my first Chipotle experience. So, here it is.

As many of you know, MckMama eats here often. After reading about her food and looking at the amazing pictures, I have been dying to go.

Every time we go to Raleigh, we always end up eating somewhere else.

This weekend, my sister and I went to the Pinocchio ballet preformed by the Carolina Ballet. The ballet was nothing short of amazing and I can't wait to see another show by the Carolina Ballet. They are amazing dancers.

Anyway, afterwards we decided to shop a little and eat lunch. I thought about Chipotle and all but insisted we eat there. Ha!

I walked in with high hopes.

First bummer... the menu is small.

I had a burrito with chicken, cilantro rice, tomatillo green chili salsa, cheese, sour cream and black beans.

We also shared a bag of chips, salsa, and guacamole.

I must admit that the guacamole was the best of all. It was wonderful.

The burrito was dry and a little bland.

So after two years... I can now say that Bonfire's is so much better.

Chipotle... it's not all that it's cracked up to be. Bummer.

Why have you kept this secret?

Dear BIL and SIL (brother-in-law and sister-in-law),

Yes, you know who you are... KEVIN AND ASHLYN!

Why have you kept this secret from me?

You know I have an addiction to twitter. Well, my twitter friends have informed me of this awesome place to eat. This awesome place being CHIPOTLE. Of course, we do not have one in eastern NC. You probably know this. If BBQ and collards aren't involved, we probably don't have one.

Have you eaten there? If so, you know my love of Mexican food is a little overwhelming so why have you never told me of this place?

We have a little place called Bonfire's and Moe's but I hear that this Chipotle is wayyyy better.

After a little research, I found out that there is a Chipotle approximately 29.72 miles from your house. Our estimated driving time is about 37 minutes.

Be ready. We are coming to visit soon. The best part, I've already made arrangements for lunch or dinner one day.

Love always,
Your favorite SIL in the whole world

PS- Let's not keep secrets anymore, ok?! Love you!

PPS- I am going to forewarn you. I am totally going to bring my camera to document my first experience at Chipotle. I want to share it with my twitter friends.
