Randomness Guide to London Menu

Mexican food on Goodge Street, next to the One Tun.

This cafe is a basic operation aimed primarily at a lunchtime crowd and those looking for quick, tasty food, rather than the full sit-down restaurant experience. There is seating inside, both stools along the window and tables around the back.

At the counter, the menu splits into four basic options: burritos (£5), tacos (£4 for two, or £5 for three), salad (£5) and soup (£2.50). The first two options have choices of filling (steak, chicken, pork or vegetables), and then there are additional fillings (rice, black beans, guacamole, et al.). Basic drinks and extras (nacho chips) are also available.

The food is prepared by an assembly-line, like at Subway, with different people handling different parts of the process, and it all moves along very quickly. The end result is a fine burrito in a slightly doughy tortilla, with plenty of filling, which goes down easily.

Certainly not the best Mexican place in the capital, but hardly the worst either.
