Craft Your Life Online Game Gives Visitors Ability to Win Free Meals

DENVER--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Qdoba Mexican Grill®, known for its wide variety of handcrafted, fresh and innovative Mexican cuisine options, announced today that it will offer its guests even more variety with its new Craft 2^™ menu, now available at all restaurants nationwide.

“While our menu is known for offering variety, we created Craft 2 as a direct response to our guests who wanted to experience more flavors in one meal”

Craft 2 lets guests mix and match smaller portions of Qdoba’s most popular items including a Naked Burrito®, Naked Taco Salad™, taco, quesadilla or tortilla soup. The Craft 2 menu allows guests to try more items and signature flavors for approximately $5.99 excluding tax (prices may vary by location). All of Qdoba’s meals are handmade in front of the guest and topped with personally selected fresh ingredients, including one of five distinctive salsas.

“While our menu is known for offering variety, we created Craft 2 as a direct response to our guests who wanted to experience more flavors in one meal,” said Gary Beisler, president and CEO of Qdoba Mexican Grill. “Guests are now able to enjoy two of their favorite items prepared the way they want or try new dishes and signature flavors that perhaps they haven’t experienced before.”

Since all Qdoba menu items are made fresh, guests can customize their order to fit their own nutritional needs and taste preferences. Guests can also check out Qdoba’s nutritional calculator on its Web site that allows visitors to build, customize and calculate the nutritional value of every menu item.
