Chipotle- Hunt Valley, MD

On the way back from a Florida my road trip took a mild detour thru the Carolinas and up the inland route. Just as I got hungry I saw a huge sign visible from the highway that said "Chipotle" in huge letters and I was sold. I got off the next exit and we navigated towards the sign. Turns out Chipotle is a chain of tree-hugger friendly tacos and burritos, that are made with organic ingredients that are locally sourced and meats from family run farms.
The interior is decorated in a modern industrial flair, with corrugated steel walls, exposed HVAC, lots of bare wood and stainless steel.
For a chain, the food is absolutely fantastic. The meats are seasoned perfectly the salsas and guacamole are made in the restaurant every day. And your plate is assembled while you watch to your specs. The prices are very reasonable and the seem to be popping up all over. I hit one located at 112 Shawan Road Hunt Valley, MD 21031but there are many more listed on the web.
I give them 7/10, not shabby for a chain.
