Portillo's takes the saying, "everything is bigger in Texas," seriously.  On January 18, the fast casual debuted in The Colony, a suburb of Dallas. Since, it's been the No. 1 restaurant in the system and has matched volumes of decades-old Chicago restaurants. The store has averaged $48,000 in sales per day since its grand opening. If you're curious what that is at an annualized level—$17 million per year. "That's a crazy number, so please don't model that," CEO Michael Osanloo told investors during the company's Q4 and full-year earnings call.
