Someone Twitterd this...

ChipotleLovers.com  A calculator ...

How many calories? 

How much sodium?

Wow.

I am not a big fan of Chipotle. Historically.  I have enjoyed it the last few times I ate at a Central Ohio Chipotle... but I used to not like it.  I went with friends...they seemed addicted.  I did not get it.  There are Chipotles everywhere in Central Ohio. 

In a comment on one of my Mexican food posts here a commenter chided me if I liked Baja Fresh I had to like Chipotle and Qadoba....  Really? Look at the sodium on the ChipotleLovers.com site...

I can't remember who Twittered the Chipotle Calculator... Do you Twitter?  I am MaureenMcCabe on Twitter. 

Chipotle is everywhere in Central Ohio... the map above is just what Google maps considers Columbus.  Need a fix?

My favorite Columbus Mexican Restaurant

 Mexican food

Sadly when talk turned to food last night at a small gathering someone brought  up my favorite Columbus  Mexican Restaurant., La Hacienda Real on Sinclair Rd.  Sadly because there was a shooting at Hacienda Real  on Sunday morning.   Four people were shot, two fatally. 

 

The Columbus Dispatch has the details of course.  

We were at Hacienda Real one night this weekend... I can't remember if it was Friday or Saturday night.... We would have been gone before the karaoke started. 

We  were at the Hacienda Real  earlier in the evening the night  of the shooting at the Alrosa Villa a couple of years ago.  I was asleep on the couch when the local news had the breaking story.    I think of Sinclair Rd. being a relatively safe neighborhood.  The Sinclair Road /  Morse Road  area is  familiar to me.

 

My sympathies to the family of the men who were killed.  Best wishes for a speedy recovery to the two injured men including one of the restaurants co-owners.  We eat there so often I feel like I know them.  

 

The Columbus Dispatch says of La Hacienda Real:

 

"Located just off Morse Road and I-71, La Hacienda Real opened in 2002 in a brick building that once housed a Shoney's restaurant. The restaurant is known for its handmade tortillas and other homemade dishes."

 

I recommend the chile relleno.
