Rice is, as I understand it, a relatively recent American addition with more authentic Mexican burritos omitting it. A burrito should consist of a hearty, flavoursome meat filling, a hot spicy sauce and a zesty, coarsely ground guacamole to balance out the spiciness.

If you just want to get straight to the reviews, or even right down to The Winners, then feel free to skip this introduction where I explain what makes a good burrito and taco for me.īurritos may be the equivalent of a sandwich, but that’s no excuse for having a bad one.
Nonetheless, it was the humble burrito and taco that got me addicted to Mexican food in the first place. There’s much more to Mexican cuisine than burritos and tacos of course – good huevos rancheros, empanadas, moles and tamales, to name but a few dishes, are even harder to find than a good burrito. This is a real shame as burritos, and its close relation the taco, are among the most misrepresented ‘ethnic’ dishes in London – the vast majority are average at best, with only a few worthy of praise.įollowing my review of Death by Burrito, frequent dining companion The Euro Hedgie challenged me to to find the best burritos in London. Most will devote little thought into choosing one the idea of travelling to find the best burrito in the capital would be as alien and incomprehensible as hunting out the best egg and cress sandwich. For many Londoners burritos are nothing more than a mildly exotic rice sandwich – a lunchtime filler to help them get through the working day.
