You Can Now Get Sushi Burritos At Starbucks
Food trucks and pop-up shops in hipster neighborhoods across the country have seen a boom in sushi burritos lately. If you haven't had it yet, think of it as a sushi-sandwich combo, or basically a gigantic sushi roll you can eat with both hands. The trend is so huge that Starbucks has now given it a try, launching a "sushi burrito" that seems like the perfect grab-and-go option for lunch.
Starbucks' sushi burrito isn't technically called a sushi burrito, but rather a Chicken Maki Roll. It has slow-cooked, shredded chicken, tomatillo salsa, lime crema, cucumber, pickled cabbage, avocado, and crispy onion, all rolled in sushi rice and wrapped with nori.
The catch? It's only available at two brand-new locations in Chicago: at LaSalle and Monroe, and 35th and State. Those two locations are the first to debut the expanded version of Starbucks' new Mercato lunch menu. If you don't want a sushi burrito, you can try a sourdough grilled cheese, a chicken and Manchego cheese sandwich, or a variety of soups and dessert pots.
As with many menu items at Starbucks, this could spread to other locations if it's successful enough. But for now, if you live in Chicago, it's a welcome addition to the Starbucks menu in August - one that doesn't include the words "pumpkin spice" just yet.
