Another one bites the dust

After a less than satisfactory response from the Chipotle headquarters, I'm afraid I am going to have to rethink my "go-to" restaurant when traveling.  I requested that certain employees be retrained in their gluten free procedures... they told me they aren't a gluten free restaurant, and that if I want gluten free, I have to describe my needs every step of the way... up to and including new cheese and lettuce containers so my food isn't cross contaminated.

Ok, I can deal with that.  Even though at my usual location, they told me it is corporate policy for them to open new containers for a gluten free diner.

But when I say I need a gluten free bowl and the response is "Do you want a burrito?"  Someone hasn't been trained.  Or they need to be retrained.

I will continue to visit the location in North Canton, Ohio... but I think I'll avoid the others.  Pity.  I had counted on being able to get a safe meal at all their locations.

Anybody got suggestions on another go-to spot?
