The burrito king of Argentina - A kid from Calabasas makes it big in Buenos Aires as a baron of the California staple.

Argentine President-elect Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner wants more foreigners to invest in her country’s economy, which is growing by 8% annually. But Argentina’s recent history of runaway inflation, currency devaluations and huge foreign debt, coupled with the generally low reputation of its politicians, banks and courts, make outside investors and major corporations wary of putting their capital at risk.

Yet some young, agile entrepreneurs with more imagination than money are finding green pastures in the land of the Pampas. And one of them is a product of Calabasas: 24-year-old Jordan Metzner. He and his partners, Samuel Nadler and Chris Burns, have become the Cal-Mexican fast-food barons of Buenos Aires.”*
