Any of you South London types had a burrito at the Dogstar?!? Dam good.

We have all food at our disposal in the UK, although admitedly not as much Mexican as you're bound to have in LA. Would you believe that Indian food is the nations favourite?

I once went to some place in Norwood that served Doritos with a Velveeta-like cheese and tinned plum tomatoes on them. :o Shocking. It was about as bad as Mexican food from the South/East coast of America.

:lol:

I'm sure there are some better places by now.

When my friends were out here from London they couldn't get enough of it and said they didn't have anything like that back home. I was taking them to some real authentic type places. Open a LA style taco stand out there ftw!! :wink:

I have not had a good mexican plate since san diego in 2000. The east coast has no clue what mexicali is all about.

:cry: it is sad.. like tears in the eyes sad.

Its tough to find good Mexican food in the south . Which is really odd considering there are tons of Mexicans here . There are a bunch of Mexican restaurants but I'd say 85% of them are absolute crap . The south ain't got shit on Texas and Cali as far as good Taco's go . Its the truth .
