Day 24
Chipolte
2 Broadway
Dec. 11, 2006

Industrial brushed-metal Mexican? Galvanized, corrugated tin decor? Quirky wood-and-corrugated-tin faux-mechanical wall sculptures? Central seating with long line wrapping around it. Long line at 12:15. Long but fast? Fast. 5-person lunch assembly line, Henry Ford lives on underneath the christmas decorations hanging from the exaggeratedly exposed pipes. "Everything" on the Vegetarian Burrito includes the unbearably hot I discover later. But for now: in and out in 8 minutes despite the expectation of 20 given the line. Burrito: excellent. Drawback: hard to get to the exit at 12:23 because the line that now completely encircles the seating area meets those who have just paid; the galvanized lunch snake eats it's salsa flavored tail.
