At lunch the other day, I was checking my email. In it, was a message from Richard saying he was in Minneapolis for a few days. Our schedules lined up, so we made plans to get together.
We met at the Mall of America. It was convienient given our transportation restrictions: neither of us had a car and he had no riding gear.
While discussing food options, we walked passed a Chipotle. Richard commented he had never been to one. I insisted that he try it then. It is one of my fave fast food places... well really the only one I will eat at.
We got our food and caught up with the legos looking over us. It was nice to see him again and talk bikes and traveling. I'm ready to take another trip.
It was an enjoyable evening. I always enjoy meeting other motobloggers.
You can read his post about our meetup on his blog: http://blog.machida.us/2014/09/bloomington-mn.html
So glad you two could meet and catch up over a meal.
ReplyDeleteWe have a Chipotle here on campus. We haven't been in some time. For some reason the new tofu dish they serve here resembles the look of canned dog food and is very salty. Maybe they've master it by now - I'm scared to find out.
It was a nice time together. Jealous of his trip to OR.
DeleteI am not very interested in the new tofu crumbles. If you get then, you dont get free guac like with the veggie. I will keep getting the veggie bowl. Less processed and tasty every time.
Chipotle was one of those places that I've always heard about but was never around one regularly enough to try it. Thank you for the introduction as well as the free guac tip! (BTW, thank you for dinner!) I generally avoid the tortilla if it's an option. I don't need the carbs...
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome for dinner. I like to skip the tortilla because it has the most salt of anything on their menu. Enjoy the guac!
DeleteChris - glad that you and Richard had time to catch up and you were able to introduce him to Chipolte (I've seen the ads, but I have to admit I've never been there either.) You are ready for another trip - wonderful - I look forward to hearing about it.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Richard is fun to chat with, so I'm happy when our paths cross.
DeleteYes, I am ready for another trip... I just need a destination :)
