Located at 721-388 Country Hills Boulevard NE, the new restaurant is the fifth of 15 slated to open in the area in the next couple of years and marks the debut of the company's first ever drive-thru location.

Set to start serving on-the-go guests July 12, 2010, the drive-thru will offer a quick and easy way to swing through for one of Mucho Burrito's delicious burritos, tacos or quesadillas, among other fresh menu offerings.

"We're incredibly excited about expanding the Mucho Burrito brand in the Calgary marketplace and launching our new drive-thru service option in Country Hills," said Alex Rechichi, Co-Founder and President of Mucho Burrito. "As the lifestyles of today's consumers become more demanding, we are ready to provide a convenient, efficient and quality solution to satisfy the needs and appetites of their fast paced lives."

Encouraging the important role of philanthropy and its impact on the community, Mucho Burrito will be asking customers to donate $2.00 to the Children's Wish Foundation. "We look forward to doing our part in providing much needed funds to help grant wishes for children with life-threatening illnesses," added Rechichi.
