Gladys Ponce opened Burrito Borimex on South State last summer under difficult circumstances. Several restaurants had failed there already, and South State was being resurfaced. She closed December 2. After State Street was repaired, she says, "for awhile things were going well, but when the days began to get shorter, it was too dark. People thought it was closed." The "Burrito" part of the restaurant's name was clear enough, and most of the menu was familiar Mexican standards; the "Bori" part was a tip that this was Ann Arbor's first
