Yeah, I’ve been to evans a lot (photos even). But this time I got in the door at 10:30 and got to stand behind the line and taste each burrito ingredient on its own. First things first, while some people call this the “original” or the “first” those are just adjectives - and as far as store manager Dave Hawkins is concerned, it should just be called “Destination Evans”.
There’s a lot of stuff to write about, so here’s the first installment.
Original Chipotle is Small
That original store is small. I thought the dining area was small, but the kitchen is tiny. They’ve really set things up efficiently in there, though I guess that makes sense after 15 years in that location. They have a fridge (NOT a freezer) on the back of the building that used to be in the basement and the basement is, in general, less than 6 feet tall.
