It’s the melding of the Manhattan tossed-salad deli and Chipotle-whatever burrito chain. It’s the Coldstone of faux-mexican. A burrito spot that mixes together your selected-on-the-spot burrito contents, THEN wraps it.!!! The answer to all the times you’ve taken a bite of a brand-new burrito, only to get a mouthful of sour cream and nothing else.
Granted, Tornado Burrito is not for everyone. For instance, some people might like getting a mouthful of sour cream… I for one kind of like getting to peruse the layers contained in my burrito, and organize my bites accordingly. But, sometimes, there just isn’t time for this kind of pussy-footing: you just want deliciousness, in your mouth, NOW (I suspect this problem is more serious for meat-eaters, whose burrito contents are more seriously at odds with one another; but as a gold star steak virgin, I wouldn’t know).
In closing, I have to say, hats off to co-creators Alicia, Aviva and Matt: this one it is truly in the spirit of the If I were a Rich Manifesto. That is, if we were already rich, starting this business would def make us richer. Maybe not two-staircases-richer, but richer none the less. Also, we would be more confident in saying “yes, cream me” whilst ordering burritos.
