Wahaca

Wahaca is a chain restaurant that has been expanding really quickly within the UK. My friend Alice took me there before we went to see her boyfriend in a play. The best thing about this restaurant is that its set up like tapas (Spanish small portions "snacks") but with Mexican food. The menu is on the table cloth and everything is labelled with a title and then a good description. 
Alice and I chose to get 2 dishes each, and then 3 sides to share, we also split a dessert a the end. I chose steak fajitas, and chicken tacos and then we shared a sour-cream and black bean side, corn on the cob, and sweet potatoes. It was a full blown out meal. The end of the meal was incredible too though, we shared churros and I had a Mexican hot chocolate, which is non dairy, and has a little chili in it for fire. Everything tasted incredible. 
The design of the restaurant is also really cute. Their catch phrase is "Mexican Market Eating" so the inside of the place is made to look a bit like a Mexican street, with colours and different shapes and booths for larger parties to sit in. The tiles on the floor change and some how everything still matches. They have a wall of different bottles reminding us all that yes we do want a cocktail with lunch. 
I know I'm going to eat at Wahaca again, because there's so much more on the menu I need to try! Here's their website: http://www.wahaca.co.uk/
