(Basically it's marketed as Mexico's Independence Day, however, a quick discussion with my spanish teacher told me that it's not true. Mexico's true independence day is September 16. The Cinco de Mayo or May 5th, is just a marketing day and an excuse for people to buy Mexican food, which is exactly what my family did. We totally went all mainstream and followed everybody else today.)
Our favorite Mexican place- the world renowned and loved, Chipotle. Where else would we have gone? I personally love Mexican food, the spicyness and sour cream taste is right up my alley. I could never get enough of it. My younger brother is a strange one though, he doesn't seem to relish the taste as much as I do, and so for that reason we don't eat Mexican food all that often.
I ordered a Wheat Burrito with steak, lettuce, cream cheese, cheese, mild sauce, and white rice. The mixture of all the flavors is like heaven in my mouth and I love the way it tastes. The mild, yet spicy (to me), sauce is toned down with the cream cheese, the lettuce dries it up a bit, and the meat adds another juice to the table that just gives it added oomf. The rice and cheese just help tone down the big mixture of flavors that just tastes oh so good.

We also ordered the chips with guacamole which is actually amazing. I loved how salty the chips were and how the saltyness mixed with the guac gave pure bliss.
That's my dad's hand- Mine aren't as big :)
If I could eat at one Mexican place for the rest of my life it would be at Chipotle, it's amazing and you can order online which is extremely convenient.
Of course I wouldn't want to eat Chipotle all the time because my mom cooks super amazing food that is 10 times tastier and better for you <3
