It goes without saying that most of us don't have the resources to go to Mexico like you do or even if we do, it's not on our agenda to treat it as must visit destination before the likes of China, India, USA, Australia, etc. What Wahaca has done for us Londoners is basically that of a pioneering one; they educated us that there are more to tacos, chicken enchiladas and margaritas. Yes I reckon I'm adventurous enough to go to either Westfield or Covent Garden for an alternative to spicy fixes; are you suggesting that when back in Blighty you're the kind of person who sticks to pork pies and rice pudding because either chicken tikka masalas or chicken chow mein is deemed too inauthentic to you! You're one pretentious and snooty soul.bellaphonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09659024295552292245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4701357792339034077.post-57783203527795142242009-09-11T18:23:18.503+01:002009-09-11T18:23:18.503+01:00Travel the world!

You say that Wahaca has a fortunate "lack of any toning down on the dishes to suit unadventurous palates". Well... I don't know what do you call unadventurous palates but you sound like yours is one of them. Wahaca is a pleaser of inexperienced palates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4701357792339034077.post-85777570621604730562009-02-18T18:13:00.000+00:002009-02-18T18:13:00.000+00:00Eva ;) Real guac...where art thou?

It clearly didn't have enough lime juice in it, or it wouldn't have been brownish.<BR/><BR/>The weird stuff in Waitrose and others tastes more like "guacamole dip" -- maybe it has mayo in it? Anyway, definitely has its place, but certainly doesn't hold a candle to true guacamole.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this review!
