When You Think Of St. Patrick's Day, You Think of...Burritos, Right?
With Cinco De Mayo all to themselves, you'd figure promoter-types charged with pimping Mexican restaurants would cede St. Patrick's Day to the micks, wouldn't you? ![]()
Shamguacs? Not any dumber than acid-washed.
No way, Jose, says Chipotle. Newly residing in my inbox is a note from p.r. guress Jamie Hinz, offering a free "shot" (get it! St. Pat's is about drinking!) of guacamole (it's green!) with every burrito (or any other dish) purchased on Trashed Wednesday, provided you've got some shade of green on your bod.
What does Mexico have to do with St. Patrick's Day? Let's let Hinz explain.
"As you know St. Patrick's Day is coming up next week and it's no secret that there will be plenty of imbibing," writes Hinz, an agent of Suzuki + Chou Communimedia. "But before you raise that first pint or shot, be sure to line your stomach with some protection. The best pre-Paddy's party food has to be high in protein, calories and, of course, fat. Take a burrito from Chipotle, for example: Flour tortilla + Rice + Organic beans + Salsa of choice + Naturally raised meat of choice + Freshly made Guacamole. You tipplin' without tippin' over."
She trippin'!
