Do you consider Chipotle as Mexican food?
rt, some people said Chipotle is more like American food. Just want to know everybody's opinion on this subject.

Tex-mex. There is an authentic mexican restaurant in my town: menudo, lengua, jaritos...and they would laugh about Chipotle being considered mexican.
One thing I think people need to understand is that 'Tex-Mex' should not be considered a goddamned insult. Texas has a deep history with it's relationship to Mexico, and Texas is fucking huge.
To put it in perspective, go look at a land size comparison of Texas and the entire UK. Texas is bigger. On it's own.
So to expect it to not have it's own culture and it's own cuisine is stupid as hell. Now, if we want to discuss which we prefer... that's a different conversation.
And to ask me if I want to live there? The answer is a resounding "hell no."
Oh, absolutely. I love Tex-Mex food but 120*F is too hot for humans.
120 F
That’s Arizona, not Texas.
This summer was a fluke. It's like saying you won't live in Houston because you can't tolerate snow.
I would say more California than Tex - Tex Mex has heavier emphasis on fried foods. The company is headquartered in California. It looks like the owner got most of the inspiration in San Francisco, and then moved to Colorado.
