Chipotle will open two new restaurants in Minnesota next week
Two more Chipotle restaurants will open in Minnesota next week.
The big burrito chain is opening in Andover at 15180 Bluebird St. NW on May 27 and in Owatonna at 135 Allen Ave. on May 29.
Both of the new restaurants will include a Chipotlane, the drive-thru lane that lets diners grab digital orders in a hurry.
A representative says both locations are currently hiring and will employ roughly 30 people per store. Positions include benefits like a crew bonus that can add an extra month's salary each year, the debt-free college degree program, and English as a second language training.
Both Chipotle restaurants will be open daily from 10:45 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Term Sheet Next: Steven Lee, an SV Angel alum, launches Seven Stars with $40 million VC fund for seed and pre-seed AI startups
In 1993, Steven Lee's parents opened Seven Star Fashion, a textile shop in L.A.'s Koreatown, after immigrating from South Korea to build a new life. 'They were the first entrepreneurs I knew,' said Lee. 'They worked long hours, a classic immigrant story. They came here with basically nothing, and didn't know how to speak English. They didn't have a network—and they're a very big influence for what I do today.' Today, a very different Seven Star launches. Steven Lee has left his role as a partner at SV Angel to start his own firm, Seven Stars, which is debuting with an oversubscribed $40 million fund. Raised in just five weeks, the fund focuses on pre-seed and seed-stage investments in AI applications across both consumer and enterprise categories. Lee plans to back 35 to 45 companies per year. Limited partners include a university endowment and a pension fund—both undisclosed—as well as StepStone Group and Sapphire Partners. Nate Leung, Sapphire partner and OpenLP cofounder, said part of Lee's pitch was refreshingly simple: 'an outstanding track record from a highly respected firm.' SV Angel—founded by legendary VC Ron Conway—has a long history of early bets on companies like Google, Facebook, and Airbnb. Lee built his own reputation within that legacy, focusing on AI, and was involved in backing startups like ElevenLabs, Mercor, Captions, Reflection AI, and Skild AI, as well as personally investing in OpenAI. These early partnerships helped lay the foundation for his new firm. Hunter Somerville, partner at StepStone Group, pointed to Lee's 'extensive relationships and trusted reputation with leading AI companies' as another key strength. 'I've started to build this unique network, really understanding what these visionary AI founders need from their early investors,' Lee told Fortune. 'I really believe that AI is the equalizer for the 90%, and it's already transforming lives at a global scale. And it really starts with motivated founders who are building enduring companies, empowering individuals and other companies to thrive. And while AI's already benefiting 1 billion knowledge workers today—we're already seeing it in finance, law, marketing—I'm most excited about AI's impact on the next 8 billion people.' He's already invested in five companies since launching the fund, though he declined to name them. Lee's value-add strategy is highly focused: offering hands-on fundraising support, access to a curated advisory network, and help with hiring across all levels. 'It's not just helping with hiring early, with entry-level engineers, but helping and closing and sourcing for mid-level to senior-level executives,' said Lee. 'When you put those three things together, that's kind of the investor that I want to be. And I think that's very unique in this moment of time, especially as a lot of these first-time AI founders are navigating this really complex technology for the first time as well.' Influenced by his parents, Lee had always imagined starting something of his own one day. Despite working in AI (or perhaps because he works in AI), he believes success isn't just about the technology—it's also about the people behind it and the life experiences they bring. 'Building a company, or any kind of business is incredibly difficult,' said Lee. 'It takes a lot of courage, lots of sacrifices. Quite frankly, it takes a bit of luck as well. I always want to make sure I remember that, especially as I work with these next-generation AI founders. Because I also want this firm to be enduring, for it to outlive me … In good times and bad times, I want to remember that's what we're striving for. That it's generational. That Seven Star Fashion was the first generation.' And the new generation begins now. This story was originally featured on Sign in to access your portfolio

Reeves ‘failed' to back English councils in spending review, MPs warn
Rachel Reeves has faced warnings that she 'failed' to back English councils in the spending review, including authorities which are effectively bankrupt. Woking MP Will Forster called on the Chancellor to 'justify' a 'lack of investment' into local government, and Tory Lewis Cocking said Labour's spending plans were 'devastating' for the sector. The Treasury will pump an additional £3.4 billion per year into councils by 2028/29, compared with 2024/25, which combined with yearly council tax rises is set to boost their spending power by 3.1% in real terms. But Mr Forster warned that 'in the detail of the statement', the Government 'is only investing an extra 1.1% in local government next year and the year after'. The Liberal Democrat MP told the Commons he was 'very disappointed' with the Chancellor's statement and asked: 'What does the Chancellor say to councils across the country and to my constituents of Woking to justify that lack of investment?' Ms Reeves replied: 'Well, that's real-terms increases in spending every year, that this Labour Government are giving to local authorities. 'And that compares to the Conservative-Liberal Democrat administration from 2010 to 2015 that cut real spending by 2.9% every year, so I'm much happier to stand on my record as Chancellor than what the Liberal Democrats did when they had a chance of being in government.' Woking issued a section 114 notice two years ago, in June 2023, when it faced having to plug a £1.2 billion deficit. Billpayers in the Surrey borough faced a 9.99% council tax rise the following year. Mr Forster, who is a member of the Commons Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee, told the PA news agency: 'In today's spending review, the Chancellor has failed to invest in local government – and she is refusing to acknowledge the harm this will cause. 'In my constituency of Woking, our local authority has already gone bankrupt, I fear more will soon follow. Following the former Conservative administration bankrupting Woking, we have seen public toilets close.' He called on the Government to 'support councils more'. The spending review which Ms Reeves fronted on Wednesday pledged 'wider reforms' which 'will ensure funding is effectively targeted, based on an updated assessment of need, and will consolidate funding to give local authorities greater flexibility to innovate'. Local government reorganisation will 'improve the join-up between local services, enabling councils to deliver services more efficiently', according to The Treasury. Conservative MP for Broxbourne Mr Cocking, who is also a member of the Commons committee, described the spending review as 'devastating'. He said: 'Councils that are going through local government reorganisation, where councils that have been run really well, are going to be potentially lumbered into new super-unitary councils, with councils that haven't managed their finances well'. Mr Cocking said that where authorities merge, 'you'll find that residents that have got sound council finances, have had good services, are now going to be subsidising areas that have made bad decisions', and added that the spending review failed to compensate for this. Surrey's district and county councils are set to merge, with new single-tier authorities taking on town hall functions, as part of the Government's push towards 'unitary' councils throughout England set out in last year's English Devolution White Paper.

Los Angeles business owners 'sick and tired' of 'stupid' anti-ICE rioters looting their stores
Local Los Angeles business owners are expressing anger at the anti-ICE rioters and looters in interviews with various outlets. "We are sick and tired of it," Paul Scrivano told "Fox & Friends First" this week. "We have no one in charge. I would go so far as to say we have children in charge of Los Angeles right now." Over the weekend, protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers escalated into violent and destructive riots, leading President Donald Trump to deploy 2,000 National Guard troops and at least 500 Marines to help quell the unrest. During the riots, looters were captured on video vandalizing and ransacking several Los Angeles stores. While major chains like Apple took the brunt of the robberies, local businesses were also caught in the crossfire. La News Anchor Claims People Are Having 'Fun' Watching Cars Burn, Riots 'Relatively Peaceful' One family who's worked at the company Nathan's Jewelers since 1987 spoke to Fox 11 Los Angeles shortly after its store faced rioters. The store's owner noted this was not the first time riots had disrupted business. Read On The Fox News App "One week there's a riot for transgender or other things and they close all the business and nobody can come inside. Another day, something else. Why [do] these people come to downtown? They go to somewhere out of the city limits and they scream about what they want to do," the owner said in broken English to Fox 11. His daughter called the situation "very crazy" and "very sad," particularly since they did not have insurance to cover damages. "People are stupid. What can you do?" she said. Her father added mournfully, "I don't sell jewelry. I sell costume jewelry. I'm not a big guy. I'm not a big fish." Bargain2Perfumes owner Monty was more outraged at the rioters for taking advantage of the chaos to rob stores like his. "This is so ridiculous. This doesn't look like they're protesting for ICE or anything. They are doing [it] just for the looting of the stores. I saw they're breaking into the Apple store. They're breaking into the Adidas store. This is not them doing protest [sic]," Monty told NewsNation. Democratic Strategist Warns His Party That La Riots Are Playing Into Trump's Hands Scrivano largely placed the blame on Los Angeles leadership and told Fox News that the only way to clamp down on the violence is to arrest the criminals. "These people don't care," Scrivano said. "The only way it's going to stop is if many troops come in, round them up, put them in the back of trucks and bring them into a cell. We have a lot of empty jail cells here in Los Angeles. We need to put them in jail cells, as many as we possibly can. If it's thousands, it's thousands. Send them back to where they came from, wherever they came from. They are not from L.A. That's how we have to get rid of this." California Gov. Gavin Newsom has spoken out against Trump's National Guard deployment, claiming it was unnecessary since the protests were "largely nonviolent." On Tuesday, he filed an emergency motion to stop Trump's efforts to send more federal officers to his article source: Los Angeles business owners 'sick and tired' of 'stupid' anti-ICE rioters looting their stores
