Side note: Stonestown is separately having a Dine & Delight: Spend $100, Get $25 Promotion, though Chipotle is not one of the participating restaurants. Even if you don’t spend $100 at Rooster and Rice for our restaurant night, if you happen to go to Stonestown fairly regularly, you could hit the $100 threshold by 2/28 to get $25 back - win-win!
