Boloco: City inspectors threatened to shut restaurant over burrito donations to event organized by the mayor
By adamg - 4/21/11 - 10:32 pmJohn Pepper, founder of the Boloco chain, is ripping into the city on Twitter tonight for what happened with the burritos the mayor's office promised bicyclists who showed up at the Hubway bike-rental announcement in front of City Hall today:
City of Boston threatened 2 shut down fed st Boloco b/c City of Boston didn't pull food permit for their own event. We donated 200 burritos.
How a city can thank businesses for supporting its civic efforts with rudeness, threats, and disrespect has us reeling today.
Not staying quiet any longer. Between the union rackets, bureaucracy, red tape, and lack of graciousness it's a wonder anything gets done.
The mayor recently proposed a one-stop Business Resource Center aimed at making it easier for small businesses to get things done in Boston. However, it's part of his budget for the fiscal year that starts July 1.
Boloco: The Dunkin' Donuts of the new millennium?
By adamg - 10/22/10 - 10:33 amStellar Restaurant Group, parent company of the local burrito chain, goes before the Boston Zoning Board of Appeals on Nov. 9 for permission to change a retail shop at 569 Boylston St. into a restaurant.
The Boylston Street location would be ideal for people who feel they can't walk to the existing Bolocos on Newbury Street by Fairfield Street, Boylston Street by Mass. Ave. or Park Plaza by Charles Street.
A couple of months ago, Stellar announced it had raised $5.5 million in equity funding to build up to six new Bolocos across New England.

Who knew? (burrito department)
By Sean - 9/25/08 - 1:13 pmUsed to go to Baja Betty's on Harvard Street in Brookline for the occasional weekend lunch with the toddler son. My favorite burrito joint in the Boston area. Spicy mushroom quesadilla for the adults, rice and beans for the boy. The boy got a sister and got older, the family got busier, so we don't find ourselves in Brookline Village of a weekend afternoon so often.
Imagine my delight to learn that MexiCali Burrito Co., 500 Technology Square (Main Street), just around the corner from my Kendall Square office, is an off-shoot of Baja Betty's, down to the spicy mushroom quesadilla and burrito filling.
Must make up for lost time.
