Darn!

So we were looking for lunch and thought we would try a Sammie at Quizno's. That's always a bargain and satisfies with only 200 calories. We pulled in and much to our surprise, the neighboring restaurant, Baja Fresh – was closed! Out of business!

Too bad. It's always been a favorite in a town filled with Mexican restaurants. Too many? Or was it simply the economy that drove them out? I'm thinking we will see more closings all winter long.

No, it wasn't caused by our deciding to have a Sammie at the competition; we always split our lunch dollars between the two fairly.

  1. Chipotle all the way Dad! Baja Fresh had been going down hill for some time.... And don't bother with LaSalsa - gross!

  2. No way! Chipotle is good food but has no ambiance. I can only eat there if I can be outside and that's gonna be tough this winter!

  3. We like to sit on the bar stools and look out the windows - we love to people watch!.... And the other alternative for us is - home! They'll pack it into a nice brown bag for you to go!.....

  4. Nope. Too many people to watch! And they're noisy...

    Ideal: I sit outside on a lovely patio, warmed by the sun. A gracious host comes and takes my order. The food arrives promptly and the servers silently slip away so that we may enjoy the meal.

    Now that's dining!
