Everyone's like, it's hard to see two years out.

And if you look at the forecast of store growth, Chipotle's like,

In 2030, we will deliver exactly 200 new doors across these geos.

You actually can think long term.

Consumers are still going to want to eat food.

They're going to want to eat healthy food in 2030, 2035, 2040.

And taking that long view, I think, is super important.

You're doing drive-throughs now?

That's been my... So I've lived there for...

coming up on five years.

And early on, every time I would leave Malibu and go to somewhere else, I'd go to Montecito.

There's much better restaurants, in my opinion, in Montecito, Santa Barbara, some of these other beach towns.

And I was trying to figure out why.

And it's entirely because the town is spread out

like you said, the density, it's spread out on this huge line.

That was my intuition.

Obviously, I don't have restaurant experience, but you can put a restaurant in Malibu, but it's still like 40 minutes in the car for like the average person in town, potentially, because you have to like get on PCH and drive like miles and miles and miles.

And if there's a little bit of traffic, then that's 20 minutes there, 20 minutes back.

And then it's like, I'm not, you know, people are just like, I'll just...

Yeah, like labor, you know, turnover will be higher.
