Not Quite the Same

We ate at one of our favorite restaurants, Boloco, the other day, and I have to say, things were a bit off. Maybe they’re going through some growing pains from their success. The differences were not huge, and some people might not have even made an issue out of them, but it is interesting to see. It could stem from the fact that there is a new crew of people, none of whom I recognize. Maybe they just need time to get it together.

The first thing I noticed is that the hot sauces are in a bad way. The one we like is never there, and the area where they keep them is in complete disarray, messy with all the caps of the bottles missing. It leaves a bad impression. A mentioned her burrito was hotter than usual, and R ordered the Mediterranean, which is a veggie deal, but they didn’t add hummus. When I went to tell them they forgot the hummus, they said they’d been out for a couple of days. Is that how you deal with a situation?

The food was still good, and we still love Boloco, it’s just that it wasn’t quite up to speed for us. It’ll be interesting to see how things evolve in the future.

Until then, thanks for reading, and thanks to BostonTweet for the pic.
