Win Free Baja Fresh Before They Open on Tuesday
It looks like Manhattan’s first location of Baja Fresh (on Lexington btw. 45+46th) is set to open on Tuesday (5/26) as scheduled. One of the owners emailed yesterday to invite me to sample their food, free, before they open. Sadly for me though, I don’t take free food from places that I write about- and as tempting as it is to make an exception for this exciting occasion, I’d much prefer going on opening day and tasting the food like a regular customer. I want to try the food they serve to paying Midtown Lunchers… not the free stuff they’re giving to people they know are going to promote the place.
BUT… that doesn’t mean you can’t have the free food. I asked the owner if I could give my slot away to one of my readers, and he agreed! In fact he said he’d be happy to give away spots to three Midtown Lunch readers (plus one guest each.) So, if you’d like to try Baja Fresh for free this weekend, before they open to the public, just comment below why you think you deserve to win. 3 winners will be drawn randomly on Friday afternoon. (And if you don’t win, I’ll see you there on Tuesday!)

Baja Fresh > any other place in the Midtown East Tex-Mex Trifecta (Qdoba, Taco Bell, Chipotle). Or so I’ve heard. I’ve never had it :(

Because I love a good salsa verde.

SoOoooo many peeps (no surprise at all) after the Free Baja Fresh. I like my odds (1 in 60+…maybe 1 in 100+ by Friday).
Zach, if I’m fortunate enough to win, please draw another Midtown Luncher as my guest from your magic hat. As much as I’d like to impress a lady with promises of free burritos, it’s only fair another MLer gets to join in the tasting and judge on behalf on the site. *crosses fingers for the win and then Zach picking a hot woman as guest* lol.
This is probably going to happen someday – so when will we see a showdown between the fast food burritos of Chipotle, Qdoba, and Baja Fresh? Better yet, who’s willing to eat all 3 burritos in one sitting? Haha.

i should win because if i need to eat one more “mexican meal” from chipotle i will spew.
-
I love free food.
-
It was impossible to get full at the free Yushi lunch I scored so enter me again Zach, I’m going for two in a row
-
Every time I eat,
I wish it was Baja Fresh.
Burrito master. -
Oh, Yushi was handing out $2 coupons yesterday on Park Ave. where there was a large Yushi balloon. You have to buy $9 of stuff though. Eh, maybe worth trying. They were also passing out watermelon drink samples. Haha.

Because I’ve never eaten at Baja Fresh so I will be a truly objective judge!

I’m hungry!!
I don’t want one of the spots. I just want to say how much I respect your strict no-freebies policy. Well done. My already high respect for you just went up a couple of notches.
