Learnings from Chipotle

http://www.wsj.com/articles/inside-chipotles-kitchen-whats-really-handmade-1424802150

This article gives a peek into the smart operations in Chipotle. It has lessons in process and operations management, like postponement of differentiation, mechanisation etc. It also exhibits a keen customer centricity.

 I did not understand where  the article says that the percentage of food cost in fine dining is higher.  I would have thought that with high overheads the food cost will be lower as a percentage of total costs.

I like the expression "the Chipotle of..." Shows the high benchmark it has set.
