Reviewing an AUTHENTIC MEXICAN RESTAURANT in LONDON!

[@hotcurry1322]

As a Brit living in Mexico for 20 years.... That is most definitely an authentic Mexican street food experience. Even down to the plastic chairs. And pineapple on tacos al pastor is the way to eat them!! Chingón!!!

[@GaryEats]

So good to hear especially with your experience 👍

[@Mike7O7O]

Thanks for commenting. I was wondering if it was even Mexican.

Was that Huitlacoche in those Quesadillas? I found it utterly vile when I was in Mexico, looked like it inside.

I had a feeling you were in for a treat when I saw those beautifully presented corn cobs. The other dishes looked very enticing too. A brilliant choice for your first Mexican restaurant review!

[@GaryEats]

It was a fantastic choice agree 👍

[@lucasmoreno5330]

Mexican food isn’t something that springs to mind when we’re choosing where to go for a meal, perhaps because there’s not many of them. Glad you enjoyed it Gary 👍

[@GaryEats]

I certainly did Lucas really great quality 👍

Porque no hay comìda Mexicana Àutentìca em ìnglaterra

[@MrPickledede]

Funny when you keep on saying please don't be hot when one of the defining characteristics of Mexican food when you compare it to other Latin American food is its use of Chiles and it's liberal use of chilies at that so Mexican food is hot and for you to say please don't be hot it's like going out to eat Indian food and before each bite you keep on saying please don't be spicy please don't be spicy😂😂😂

Hi Gary and Mr Cameraman. Well it was great to see Mexican food reviewed today to which you really fell on your feet with this place. The food looked really good and authentic and i learned a new thing today, iv never heard of white corn before, but to steal your phrase 'im going to give it a go' Nice to see the place was clean and tidy, and i would defiantly try the food there. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

It was my first and not last regarding white corn loved it 😍

[@alexandriajohnson6656]

Gary with all the delicious looking food(all the steaks,chops, roast dinners and fancier restaurants etc.)I've seen you review I'm stunned at how much I wanted tastavision for that corn 🌽. I guess it just proves how technique and passion elevate a simple food to something sublime .😊

[@GaryEats]

The corn was my favourite but all the food was really good 🌽🌽🌽🌽

[@monro2159]

Looks like your found a real diamond there. I'm a fan of Mexican food, but generally in London, with many of the restaurants I've visited, it all tastes like it comes from the same kitchen! That looked tremendously authentic, creative, tasty and cooked with a lot of care and passion. That is the most dramatic and eye catching way to serve corn imaginable!

[@GaryEats]

Your completely right a believe it’s top quality and really authentic 👍

[@jadedwitness9840]

This is the only good one south of the river.

[@Redsaxophone11]

Glad to see you giving a Mexican a go. I found this place fascinating as I have been to Mexico a few times in the past. The table and chairs are very reminiscent of my time eating out there. The food looked tremendous and the white corn was cooked in a very unique way. I had white corn a long time ago but it was on the cob not cooked in the interesting way it was there. This will be very high on my list of restaurants to visit thanks to your channel. Decent prices as well, it seems great value for a sometimes underappreciated cuisine, I think.

[@GaryEats]

Really great quality and fantastic flavours if you get time to go there you won’t be disappointed 😊

[@tonypine3434]

Wanna get yourself down elephant and castle (if you havent already) nd check out the colombian, mexican and ecuadorian joints. The emapanadas in La Vida Loca are class @@GaryEats

That was a great review Gary. Fabulous environment and the quality of the Mexican food was outstanding. Loved the corn-on-the-cob. Excellent value for money. Enjoyed the presentation and appreciated you sharing with us 👍👍👍

[@ianm4316]

To try something new and be blown away with it is really something to be honest. So good on the guys at the restaraunt for dishing out good food at a reasonable price👍 I did have a giggle to myself when I saw the chilli sauce🤣🤣🤣. Good on ya Gary for taking two for the team😉 Loved the review thanks guys🙌

[@GaryEats]

It was so hot but the food was cooked perfectly and quality 👍

[@Ziggylyle]

Oh my goodness that white corn looked absolutely delicious, it all did, authenticated by the hat, suits you sir. Bitter cold and icy over here. I prefer the milder dips. Great review again Gary, as I always say " you were made for this" Stay warm😂

[@GaryEats]

Very kind of you to say Ann 👍

[@boomshanka8743]

As an American in the UK I really miss good Mexican food. The pineapple is a legit component of al pastor, there was migration from Lebanon to Mexico in the early 20th century, so al pastor ("shephard style") is Lebanese kebab but made with Mexican seasoning, corn tortilla instead of pita, and pork instead of lamb as Mexico isnt sheep raising country. It can be sublime. I will give this place a try when i am next in London.

[@GaryEats]

Great comment and you will enjoy 😉

[@Farquad76.547]

Damn I feel sorry for you! I moved from UK to USA and I prefer it here.

[@Hercules_the_Great]

Thanks Gary, always looking for a place that does Mexican food well in London, and looks like you've found it. Can't believe you got white corn on the cob. So rare here in the UK, and so much better than yellow corn.

[@GaryEats]

Your welcome, the corn 🌽 was totally 💯 never had it before 👍

[@delphihaze1317]

The food looked amazing. I love my chilli,so I'm impressed you made an effort with the sauces. Some food tasters make a God-awful fuss and drama about it,but you kept it nice and simple.

[@garethconnett7672]

That looked very nice Gary, I did check the street food prices in Mexico and you can get large 3 or 4 beef/cheese tacos for roughly 80 pence all in. It's amazing isn't it the price differences between countries, take care Gary , great review, Gareth

[@heathermartin8932]

Yes that is true, but they are small, and you don`t get a seat. been to Mx 5 times....wonderful country. Delicious food!

[@GaryEats]

Sounds great Great Garth shame it’s a lot more expensive here but overheads 👍

[@bordaz1]

Gary, that looks like an authentic taquería! The meats, tortillas, salsas, and toppings look like what I would want when I go to buy a Mexican lunch here in the US Southwest. The ONLY thing that looks different is the coriander/cilantro....we usually include cilantro on street corn, and as a topping in tacos/quesadillas/vampiros/mulitas, the cilantro is either the whole leaf or rough chopped. The coriander at La Chingada looks like it's been julienned.

[@GaryEats]

You definitely know more than me regarding Mexican food, will take advice from you before I go again, thank you for watching and commenting 👍

[@walterekurtz4320]

Never been the biggest fan of Mexican food, maybe because I've never really been to a restaurant that did it justice. This one looks like it could change that. Definitely an addition to my list of restaurants to try in 2024. Thanks Gary

Love that you've tried this. I have a couple Hispanic friends from London and the Hispanic community is definitely growing there, especially South London. The food is exceptional

[@GaryEats]

I totally agree!

[@Ana198]

This is exactly why i wanted you to taste proper authentic stuff. I had a similar experience years ago. I went to the first actually authentic Mexican place in Finland and was completely blown away, i thought texmex fajitas and that stuff was Mexican food but nope. That inspired me to visit Mexico and i have been going back many times. Yes tacos pastor in Mexico always come with pineapple, they are a match made in heaven. Salsa Verde(green salsa) is my fav sauce, the hotter the better. That place looked great and i would have gone even higher than 9. Unfortunately from now on when you go to a texmex place you will always be disappointed since you have had the good stuff now.

[@GaryEats]

I think your right Ana the spice was wow 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

[@determineddi2044]

Mexican food is so popular here all over The States. I've seen it's becoming the same in the UK. When I lived over there in 1999-2000 you couldn't get much at the shops but I think they had taco kits (packaged meal you put together) but they were v. expensive. We eat tacos or enchiladas or nachos in some form with brown rice at least once a week. Enjoying your videos here in New York.

[@GaryEats]

Welcome New York hope the weather is ok 👍

[@PastaSauce.]

Yea authentic Mexican food is very hard to get in the UK. The chain restaurants don’t cut it

[@pavelow235]

Any NYC mexican restaurants you wanna shout out? Tacombi is overrated...

[@FlytoColombia]

You've got numerous Hispanic owned businesses around the corner. Learn how to make Tamales, Empanadas and Arepas, and you'll never eat the same again. That's Colombian cuisine btw. Much better than Mexican lol!

I've never seen anything like your first course (the white corn) - stunning presentation & taste ! Your second course (steak in tortilla - no idea how to spell it's real name !!) looked very good also (pass on the chilli sauce though). The final course (again, no idea how to spell it) looked terrific in it's presentation and once more, a fabulous tasting experience. I'd not have the pineapple but that's just a personal preference of mine. Overall an incredible place & they certainly pride themselves on how a meal looks as well as it's flavours. Love the decor inside too. Top drawer Gary !!

[@GaryEats]

Really appreciated Robert, great comments as always thank you 😊

Evening, a small little restaurant,lovely decor. Wall paintings are excellent and add a nice touch.The food.White corn,never ever come across that before. Presentation brilliant,a treat for the 👁‍🗨 and your reaction said the taste was good.Not so much Taco- Bell,more Taco-Belly😂😂 The whole event was fabulous and the price ( apart from the service charge 😮? Weird) is value for money. Allan&Family ❤😊 A quick PS question 🙋 the last two videos seem to have quite a few jump cuts,not noticed before by me.The good lady wife (degree in media studies & television production) wonders if CTP has new equipment??. I just watch and enjoy😊

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Allan. Glad you enjoyed the video - we try to speed the videos up now so you're not just watching me chew for endless seconds lol!! Great spot though.

[@susanfarley1332]

We got white corn here in the US. It tends to be a little more tender than yellow corn. We also have corn on the cob that has a mix of yellow and white kernels. I use that kind to make cream corn. Just take a sharp knife and slice the ends or tops of the kernels off, then use the back of the knife to scrape off the rest of the kernels. Save all that including the juice. Put all that you have gotten off the cob into a heat resistant glass bowl and add a lot of butter and cook in a microwave ( yes, microwave ovens are very useful for cooking the corn without burning or having it stick to the dish. Keep stirring it often. Cook until it starts to thicken and taste it until it tastes done. Add salt to taste and black pepper. I can eat the whole bowl if I was greedy. It is so good.

[@nimmichagger165]

Food looked amazing, Gary. But one of my absolute dealbreakers in any restaurant is temperature. If they expect customers to feel comfortable and return, then turn the bloody heating up!

[@SCCL1000]

Hello Gary, Glad you loved the restaurant. I've traveled to Mexico many times over decades, and you food looked most authentic to me. The corn is sold like that on the streets! Looked like a pibil pork, and pineapple or mango would shine on it. And the tortillas, both flour and corn, looked perfect as if made authentically. Do you cook? If so, 2 KZbin good offerings for Mexican cuisine are Rick Bayliss's offerings (wonderful for historical and social background, ingredients explained in depth---oh, yes, recipes too!; and Rachel Cooks With Love---home cooking, no nonsense.

Had to Google it after watching your video Gary. "Do Mexicans put pineapple in tacos? Your typical taquería has a nice chunk of pineapple beside or atop the rotating spindle where they cook the marinated pork meat for al pastor tacos. While they shave the meat off the block of meat (known as trompo), taqueros cut slices of pineapple and put them in the tacos." Looked fantastic, I am a big Gammon and pineapple fan so my mouth was watering at you tucking into those tacos, will have to try pork tacos instead of chicken, great review. 👍🏼

Love Mexico, love Mexican people and love Mexican food. You started off your Mexican Food odyssey with an absolute belter there Gary. Mexican cuisine is very regional and varied and comes in all manner of presentations and establishments. It looked very "city" authentic and decor wise it reminded me of several street food cafes in the Zona Rosa in Mexico City and in parts of Guadalajara too. Not a lover of corn but those Steak Quesedillas - wow! Overall the mark was slightly generous, but only because I think that level of service charge in that establishment is a total p***t*#e.

The quality was amazing and to be fair I was pleasantly surprised loved the corn especially but overall really good food, can’t disagree regarding the service charge 👍

Gary David from south Africa found this by chance great show starting to watch your first show I torture myself as the food looks so good

[@GaryEats]

Hi David welcome all the way from 🇿🇦, thank you for watching and commenting really appreciated 👍

[@JAGIFFORD]

That looked delicious Gary and goes to show how underrated Mexican food is. Bodega Cantina in Birmingham is a musty try!

[@GaryEats]

Will take a look for next time I’m in the area 👍

We don't have the Mexican option round here but if we did I would go for it. Mexican cuisine has been championed by Tomasina Myers (Masterchef winner) for years and I have had an appetite for it for a while. If I'm in London, I will make sure I go here. Well done Gary.
