Yeah... if its in Toronto now, they'll probably spread to the big centers, like Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary. Bree is just outside of Edmonton, so maybe I can hit one up there in a couple years, lol!!

I think we have chipolte down here in Florida but I have never eaten there in my life. They do mexican or tex-mex right? (when we do go out to eat we tend to do seafood or BBQ)

Sonja, she's used to driving with my dad, everything takes about 3x longer, lol...he stops for coffee in like EVERY town, and then to pee in the next town and get another coffee...and so on...
Driving the speed limit and stopping only for gas, she's 8 hours from me. You're probably about 6 hours from me, right?

it's fast food authentic mexican but slow cooked. all of their meat is organic. nothing is fried or full of preservatives. they even make their chips homemade. in fact...everything is homemade at every store. nothing is brought in except their tortillas. it's $6.50 or $6.85 for a massive burrito and it's heaven. and no...not tex-mex...very authentic actually! authentic with a modern twist!

Sorry, Fizz, but the food is way too spicy for me. It's one of the biggest little arguments J & I have all the time: Mexican food. I need it heavily Americanized to be able to eat it, and he loves it superauthentic and superspicy. Chipotle, Qdoba, etc. are all WAY too spicy for me and make my belly hurt for hours. We compromise by eating tacos at home.
It's my sister's fave restaurant, though, so does that count?!

I thought you were in Fort St. John or something.... thats really far from me, lol! Where are you so I can look you up on a map??
And Bree's right... My dad would stop at EVERY Timmies to get coffee, and have to stop at least 2x in between each of them to pee, haha!! Now that I'm with DH (who works with my dad, and has acquired ALL his bad habits), its the same. It takes us 12 hours or more to get to Bree's and she's only 8 hours away, lol!!!

Ok Lizzy...I have never been there either and apparently there are a couple within 15 miles of me. Now you are making me want to go! I love Mexican food. I will have to remember this the next time the hubster and I are trying to figure out where to go for dinner.
