Protein Bar Review and Big and Little’s change
So I ate at Protein Bar yesterday for lunch. I had the Ivy which had chicken, basil pesto and quinoa. I went there for the burritos on whole wheat tortillas. I have wished for a long time that Chipotle would adopt whole wheat tortillas. They have added brown rice which is good but just not good enough. Protein Bar’s burrito is great on a whole wheat tortilla. It’s much smaller than Chipotle’s. I like that. We don’t need the grand size of a very large burrito. The only criticism I would offer is that the burrito was somewhat bland. It needs some hot sauce or something. It was kind of one-note. That being said, the service was friendly and fast. I like the room at the one on Clark and Grand. I assume most of them have the same layout.
Today, I wanted to go to Big and Littles right near school at Orleans and Chestnut. They have just moved in the past week. Since they were featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, their business has exploded. I am happy for them but I couldn’t get lunch there today. I had to go to work. I did get their fish sandwich earlier in the week. It was great. It’s a far cry from McDonald’s fillet-o-fish! I’ll be back Big and Littles.
