I work at a place called Freebirds, consider it the In-N-Out for Burritos. It's a local Texas joint that's absolutely delicious, expanding nationwide, etc etc.

Anyway we wrap the burritos in foil, and we have a shit load of foil in the lobby for customers/kids to play with and make "foil art" to put on the wall.

People typically make like College signs, little people, animals, etc.

But look what I found....

I'm actually more amazed by the fact that you work at Freebirds, because nobody here (northeast) has any idea what I'm talking about when I tell them Chipotle is terrible

Chipotle is amazing if you have never had real mexican food in your life.

It's edible.

I seriously don't know why there are even Del Taco's/Taco Bell's here in socal, there is a taco shop that makes delicious authentic mexican food like every 2 blocks. My stepdad always goes out to get "burritoes" and comes back with awful Del Taco and I want to shoot him in the face.

I'm going to move to Texas, go to every single Freebirds I can find, and make foil messages until mOnion posts a picture of them. Then I will go to the Freebirds I went to that day, and stay all day making foil messages until I see someone taking a picture. Then I will go up to mOnion and ask for some more foil.

I used to live in lubbock and eat at freebirds all the time. My friends and I made foil mutalisks once and left them around the table. I sure they mostly got thrown away. Good to see some esport stuff making it on the wall!

Oh that's interesting... it used to do that and now doesn't do it anymore. If I cared enough I'd ask our coders exactly what the explanation is for this... but whatever.

I always resize images to 590 pixels before posting them regardless which is probably a good idea in general.

I live in Santa Barbara and was under the impression that the first Freebirds was our local venue; which is in Isla Vista California.

Are you sure it's a "local texas joint" ?

R1CH changed it a few weeks ago. It was done because resizing is an expensive operation and slows page rendering down.

I ate at a Freebirds in Lubbock when visiting my brother last month. It was good; not enough to call it Mexican, but the food was good on it's own.

I'd rate it above Moe's and about the same as Chipotle. Freebirds get bonus points for offering corn tortillas, although the steamer sucked to warm them.

I have such a hard time finding good Mexican in Miami, without. long drive T_T

i'm sorry, but i just see a big T ^^.

tbh, i dont think it's a reference to TLO.

The T could stand for something reffering to the State, Texas.
