From an email:
“Amparo Fondita, a Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant in Dupont Circle, is ditching the traditional lunch format and rolling out a weekday lunch burrito takeover by its sister concept El Gabacho. The April pop-up also serves as a preview of El Gabacho, Irabién’s forthcoming fast-casual concept, inspired by those formative stops in Villa Ahumada in the Chihuahua desert.
