Eater.com- All kinds of restaurants want to be "the next Chipotle," but this one actually will be: the burrito chain has announced they're opening a chain of Asian restaurants called ShopHouse Southeast Asian Kitchen, the first of which will open in Washington, DC this summer.
Inspired by Thai, Malaysian, and Vietnamese cuisines, the restaurants will serve dishes made from seasonal ingredients including "grilled and braised meats, a variety of fresh vegetables, aromatic herbs, spicy sauces, and an array of garnishes." So like, rice bowls? Noodles? Banh mi? It's not very clear. Anyway, customers will still be able to customize their dishes like they do at Chipotle.
Who doesn't love a fat chicken burrito with all the fixings from Chipotle? No one? Yeah, the place is spectacular, but what if you combined the two greatest kinds of fast food establishments, Mexican and Asian, and put them into one super restaurant? That's what Chipotle's doing. I feel like people would go apeshit over an Asian Chipotle in Cleveland Circle. And anyone who knows me knows I'd take a bowl of lo mein any day of the week and twice on Sundays. What do you think?
