no kidding. these mexican joints are amazing, and i love my carne asada, but seriously, nothing beats a good curry.

I find it interesting that Mexican cuisine is one of the few countries' cuisines that requires the word AUTHENTIC to identify the real thing from the imitation, implying such a vast difference in quality and deliciousness from the Mexican-ish fare that most of the under-enlightened world has unfortunately blamed Mexico for.

nah we just eat toast in england

Yeah dude it was mainly just out of curiosity. As before mentioned friends of mine that were out here visiting said that they actually didn't have Mexican food there at all that they know of. No harm.

In other words what people actually think Mexican food is is crap... True.

In less words, Mexicans get blamed for everything. From any unsolved stabbing to the atrocities that other people have done with their traditional way of preparing food.

I don't get it.

Just kidding, but it is a shame what people assume is the best Mexico could come up with. A sad mushy plate of stuff rolled up and smothered with sauce gets passed off as the preferred food of a race of people that actually strongly dislike what most "Mexican restaurants" are serving in comparison to the authentic food they love. I think of fresh lime, cilantro, avocado slices, maybe some campechana or ceviche......... and maybe one mushy cheesy saucy thing.

There isn't much good mexican food outside of the US and Mexico.
Its much like the english attempts at japanese food.

cilantro makes me want to vomit

I doubt they can aford our Mexican food in Mexico
now yuppie food
with chocolate & all

did you know that with all the hipsters eating quinoa the price has gone up and the peruvian ppl who used to eat it as a staple of their diet can't afford it anymore.

im sure this has become a political debate by now, cba to read it all, but the best Mexican i've ever had (and continue to have, on a bi-weekly basis) is La Choza in Brighton.
HOLY FUCK thats good mexican

i dont work for them or anything, they just deserve the props

Couple of great Mexican places in Madrid, one of which (my favourite) was recommended by a Mexican friend of ours. Proper good stuff and great tequila

They have illegal immigrants in the UK, so there should be Mexican food too, right?

=D

There's a great Tex Mex joint literally around the corner from my house here in Utrecht. Though I usually jsut get burgers or ribs. Though my old 'standard menu' was one xxl rack of ribs and a quesadilla. All shit's fresh.

Harder to get to Ingerlund on a floating door though.

we have a place called gringos in huddersfield pretty sick. theres a taco bell in Manchester but meh.

i wonder why places like taco bell don't bother with the uk

english fast food and american fast food are pretty similar for everything else

im sure they'd be popular

just remembered chipotle being so sick when i lived in the us. Doesn't make you shit bloody like on southpark either.

We have a few Taco Bells in Essex, but I haven't tried one yet. It smells like it'd give me the shits

Going to Mexico in a months time, I shall regale you with stories of proper Mexican food upon my return
