Mexican tries "AUTHENTIC" Mexican food in THE UK?!

[@Poliguillo]

If you travel to Cádiz, Spain, I'll be more than happy to help you get churros and authentic mexican food.

[@alansilva6077]

I’m going to Spain (Madrid and Barcelona) this month, by any chance is there Mexican food in either city?

[@1Conquest1]

Hello to the both of you! I am English and when my Mexican grlfriend came to the UK we went to Mezcalito in Chelsea, she loved it! Enjoy! Simon

[@paolakoh3472]

Los churros en España son deliciosos con el chocolate, es taaan espeso y delicioso!!! Yo sentí que tenían un sabor diferente, ya que en España algunos no llevaban azúcar con canela. Y son baratos. Pero muchos platillos mexicanos no lo son :'C aprendí a cocinar porque quería comer chilaquiles, enchiladas, cochinita pibil y churros. XDDD

[@Marilintheexplorer]

Hay un restaurante se llama Mestizo, la comida esta muy rica, tienen mole y otros platos típicos, también tienen una tienda donde venden dulces, tamales, quesos, tequila, tortillas… Fuí con mi familia en New Year’s Eve, cenamos allí, comimos la uvas, trajeron mariachis, luego la fiesta, linda experiencia te hacen sentir como de la familia 😊 se los recomiendo. También si tienen tiempo prueben la comida de Ecuador, hay un restaurante en Angel , se llama el inca plebeyo.

[@mariadelcastillo334]

Siii lo recomiendo mucho! E igual al lado tienen una tienda y venden dulces, comida, drinks, etc. todo mexicano! :)

[@laurasebastian6036]

"Churros originate in Spain and Portugal, but made their way to Mexico and other former Spanish colonies and settlements as well."

[@samin2290]

They have these kind of „Spanish Churros“ in Germany as well. I used to like them, then I visited Spain and tried the real Churros there getting served with thick Hot Chocolate to dip in🤤❤ Now i can’t eat that fatty Nutella Churros in Germany anymore 😂

[@jakeherper]

Best place in London (approved by my Mexican wife) is Mestizo near Euston station. They do an amazing all you can eat brunch on Sundays!

[@jinamarasinghe9380]

My mexican GF will be coming in December, I'll take her there, thanks for the recommendation

[@jonayne2176]

Wow those tacos didn't look bad at all! I hope Joss gets better soon. :(

[@normaangelicamanktelow2407]

Si quieren mejor comida mexicana vayan a El Pastor (creo que hay yres sucursales). Hace 24 años que lleguè a vivir aquì a Inglaterra y no habìa un solo restaurante mexicano y extrañaba muchos mis tacos. Afortunadamente ya se puden encontrar algunos que ofrecen buena comida. En El Pastor se come muy rico y hay buen ambiente. Enjoy London and the weather. It's been just a little 🥶.

[@ferchas031]

No es en Londres, pero acá en Birmingham hay un restaurante que se llama "A La Mexicana". Se los recomiendo muchísimo, es el mejor que he encontrado hasta ahora.

[@localmilfchaser6938]

Tú eres mexicana?

[@estefaniacastruita6076]

Check out the restaurant called mestizo! It’s authentic Mexican food and it’s really tasty! Se los recomiendo mucho! Saludos ❤

[@InfoLunix]

Según la página web del gobierno de México: "Se cree que la historia del churro comienza en China, donde mercaderes portugueses conocieron el “Youtiao”, una tira de masa frita que se servía en el desayuno; dicho bocadillo originalmente se servía en pares, esto como un símbolo de la dinastía Song Qin Hui y su esposa."

[@RebecaMcVlogs]

Mestizo es el mejor lugar para conseguir comida mexicana en Londres y también tienen un súper mercado

[@erickvillegas8327]

I agree, Joss. I don't like it when people say guac. It reminds me of guacala en vez de guacamole, but people say it as a shorter way of saying guacamole here in the US. It's like when they remove part of the name, not realizing it doesn't make sense when shortened, like traveling to Cabo or Baja for a vacation.

[@naomicazares1327]

Yessss, I was waiting for today's video !!!

[@anakarenjunto]

No me imagino lo difícil que ha de ser no tener tu comida favorita cerca, al menos encontraron un buen lugar para comer tacos. Me gustan mucho sus vídeos pero admiro y me encanta la calidad de edición, son un deleite visual. Gracias por ello. Saludos desde México!

[@dilettamonzani669]

Hello guys! I've never commented before but your videos are really entertaining. You seem like a cool couple to hang out with. 😀✨

[@JossAndJanik]

Hi Diletta! Thank you for your nice comment! We are happy you like our videos :)

[@kasaritababe]

I remember the day I was looking for churros rellenos lol. I found a stand in Camden market, a bit expensive but delicious! Regarding the food .. well, I guess there are many places, I'm not sure if there's any Mexican stand in Brick lane? the last one I tried was, El Pastor and the food was tasty. There's one in Coal Drops Yard , it's a nice area and why not to check King Cross on the way? For the potterhead 😉

[@ianstafford8716]

Not a real criticism but why are you expecting to find authentic Mexican food in England and why on earth go to M&M world? Can't you try some British food and visit British shops etc whilst you were in the UK? I bet I can't get a decent Sunday Roast in Mexico City and I definitely wouldn't expect to do. Keep up the vlogs though!

[@anonniemouse8042]

Exactly Americanised people tend to stick only to American food. Not many Mexican’s in UK why would such a tiny minority be well catered for. It winds me up when people visit and treat our food like it’s from another planet. I wouldn’t expect fish and chips in Germany or Mexico. How long have they been in the UK and all these people do is moan about the weather in winter, only visit MacDonalds or insert their country’s cuisine and go on about bloody Harry Potter. How old are they.

[@LiamSmith-r3p]

Yeah I mean no one else could possibly roast beef and a couple of vegetables and cut them into pieces like you do 😂. The only unique thing would be the yorkshire pudding.

[@jesuzzah]

Because it's interesting to see what other countries consider "authentic" when we know it usually never is. For instance, Mexican food in both the US and the UK is rarely authentic and they both serve it very differently. Same with Chinese food, Indian, Italian, etc. It's fun to see how local tastes and customs mix with international cuisine. Personally, as someone from the US, specifically Los Angeles, it's interesting to see what places like Japan and the UK attribute to us. I've seen things I don't recognize at all which I find entertaining and interesting to try.

[@nidvelazco7670]

Hola chikos, yo se donde los jueves en la noche Mestizos downstairs apartir de las 7 hay tacos no estan mal no tan caros/ night club se pone super bien... Txt me los llevo 🤗 ....

[@laurasebastian6036]

Siiiii, los churros son de España! Y al parecer también de Portugal según Google. Supongo que de la península ibérica entonces

[@bubblebluetea9567]

A mi me salio que eran de China.

[@paolacano7028]

Linda pareja!

[@andreapaulina113]

you guys are making my winter break better 🥰

[@margaritatorres2815]

Hola 👋🏽 Que les pasó? Están bien? Estaba esperado el video de cada día y ayer no los vi y hoy tampoco hay video! Todo bien? Espero que si!

[@oscare.quiros6349]

Of course churros are originally from Spain that is why is traditional in many Amrican countries, like CR, ES, MX and many more.

[@Elpapu2022]

Oye, Joss, aquí en Costa Rica también cantamos la del burro sabanero, qué oso.

[@margaritatorres2815]

Le falto el cilantree a los del pastor!!

[@hannapa6542]

Hi there! 😊 I am sick in bed - just like Joss, my boyfriend also sleeps in another room and I am also ”pressing my thumbs“ that he remains well! Wish you the best and really enjoy your videos! ☺️

[@anetpaulinavillanuevaromer1362]

Café Chula (que creo no tenían café) en Candem Market no estaba mal, las quesadillas de champiñones eran ricas, también es buena opción para comer

[@anetpaulinavillanuevaromer1362]

Te daban tequila de cortesía xD

[@iselamacias4671]

Y tienes que pedirlas con queso? 😅

[@anetpaulinavillanuevaromer1362]

jajaja nop 😅

[@ehhe4381]

churros is just flour...and water frued in oil... in Mexico, Spain or Siberia...

[@sykotikmommy]

Empanada's and a bunch of other food that's eaten in Mexico is originally from Spain, just modified some. Same with other central and South American countries that were under Spanish and Portuguese rule.

[@paolakoh3472]

When I was in Spain, i was really happy because we have similarities with our food. Fabada tastes like frijoles charros ❤️❤️✨✨✨ and tortos were like salbutes.

[@Whinenrages]

Miss Mexico.try visiting Heathrow airport there try their aeroplanes buy a ticket take seat wait a few hours there you go Mexico stay eat burn passport .problem solved

[@sheylazuazo5883]

Latino American food in London is more expensive than Chinese or Indian food....

[@lilyshalom1967]

Because saying "guac" is like saying yuck🤮! Like guácala!

[@margaritatorres2815]

Aaaahhhh que bonito besito 😘!

[@vanessagonz4938]

Jajajaj, 😂😂😂 la chingada existe y es un restaurante

[@cbs5357]

Mexico here, Mexico there, just boring man !

[@djburland]

Head out of town to Sawbridgeworth for a real Mexican restaurant

[@goulnazgalieva3121]

Are you going to Cartel del Taco in Paris? See you😃

[@badeline9967]

[@TheEtherny]

Dang, hope yall are doing fine! Everyone in my house is sick and it sucks, can't imagine while being in another country while trying to work

[@fernandamena9461]

Hope Joss feels better soon 🫶🏽

[@Lowequay]

[@debowiec3]

Strange video!!!!!!

[@juanitavillagrana5897]

Holaa chicos tienen que ir al restaurante Cavita ,es de una chef excelente qué estuvo en master chef. Cocina increíblemente delicioso, les va a encantar!

[@barbaramontoya5971]

Los churros son espanoles

[@Diana81LA]

yo siempre he creido que los Churros son de Argentina...🤔

[@LordJusticeXD]

Y yo creía que eran de México y los estadounidenses creían que eran de Francia, pero no, son de origen chino.

[@MarlonKingShow]

Cross over the bridge near the big wheel and aquarium and there is a nice Mexican around that way, can't remember the name now.

[@ilhuicatlamatini]

😮 it’s named “La chingada” ?!?! Whaaaat?!?! Also, if speaking English, in Texas we sometimes say “with guac” haha

[@MarlonKingShow]

My wife is mexican and we struggle to find decent authentic Mexican food. We rely on friends and family visiting. Hope you enjoy your stay in the UK.

[@reynoldrosa]

Churros come from Spain and Portugal. They're not exclusive to Mexico. They can be found throughout Latin America. That restaurant had a very funny name. Is it owned by Mexicans? I wonder who chose the name "LA Chingada" for it.

[@Jobros1love1dream4]

Ay no...seems it's just like the weather..I also got sick these past days...it started with the pain in my throat and it has evolved haha I hope janik doesn't get sick and I hope Joss gets better soon

[@victoriahernandez98]

El mejor vlogmas. Los amo!!

[@MrRobertoa1]

I took my wife to Switzerland and found the best Mexican restaurant in Switzerland. I know it was the best one, because it was the only Mexican Restaurant in Switzerland. The waiters were from El Salvador, but they knew a lot of the Mexican songs and I got to sing with them. We had a lot of fun. We also visited Berlin, Germany and found a Mexican restaurant and it was very good. The torrtillas were store bought and the meat was frozen and put in a microwave and then served. We knew we were not home. We had to try it. The staff didn't speak English or Spanish. They gave us attitude. I'm sure it was because they knew we could tell the food was not worth the price. We ate there so we could tell our friends we had tacos in Berlin, Germany. Where have you eaten tacos at? It's just bragging talk.

[@mercedezize]

I hate it when people say guac too!! So cringe and makes me think they’re going to say “guácala” or it also sounds like what a duck says in Spanish cuac cuac jajaja

[@andreasthoms5350]

Only few people in Germany know how to make good churros , but more know how to make bad ones .Too often too much oil inside like a sponge .🤢🤢

[@abelategui]

You meant authentic “street” mexican food lmao because house made food & most of the good restaurants don’t do that to your tummy. Just saying for anyone that might think all mexican food does that to the tummy 😅

[@lawrenceglaister4364]

Not to sure if you must always eat Mexican food all the time or just now and then but if you can't do without it I'm afraid living and working abroad is going to be very limited , the UK does have mexican restaurants in the major cities but not that many in towns , try to eat local and national dishes were you go to

[@leslieruby3295]

Hi guys! What’s the name of the Mexican restaurant you guys went to?

[@Matthew-qo3ql]

When are you coming to Australia 🇦🇺

[@davidedbrooke9324]

There in the U.K. is a huge variety of good foods. Try the different ones.

[@WindmillTea]

I am so glad you posted! I am loving the Vlogmas and I was sad when I didn't see a new video earlier--however, do rest if you need it :)

[@MV-xj4yq]

Un taco 70 baros.. pasado de lanza, q triste haha Si yo una vez me comi como 6 tacos por 55pesos en CD mx 😄🤪

[@Laabebafranco]

Ahhh son las 6 am.Estoy enferma y en cama desde hace 2 dias y al ver su video me hizo morirme de hambre. Quiero tacos al pastor y guacamole 🥺🥺🥺🥺. Lastima que aun no encuentro un lugar donde sepan lo mismo que al DF. 😭😭

[@mildrdsaucedo]

Janik has an internet clon! his name is Hyram and he’s amazing with skincare reviews 😅

[@PatriciaHFD]

Sí, son españoles... Pero lo tenemos incorporado, porque yo soy uruguaya y también tenemos churros (y de aspecto tal cual esos 😉).

[@sykotikmommy]

I wish there were Christmas markets in the United States, like in Europe.

[@LaRusalka]

Yo tampoco sabía el origen del churro pero acá en Argentina también lo hacemos y comemos (en la esquina de mi casa suele haber un muchacho vendiendo churros casi todos los días jeje) así que de seguro no es mexicano jaja. Entré a revisar el origen, y efectivamente el churro que conocemos viene de España pero resulta que es una modificación de una receta china, re loco.

[@itsalex7229]

10:03 the way Janik closes the door lol🤣

[@joannunemaker6332]

I'm so sorry you both got sick! No fun. Feel better soon, I hope.

[@elindigeno1215]

Why not open your own Mexican restaurant?

[@LiamSmith-r3p]

British people don't want authentic Mexican food for the most part. They aren't used to the flavor profile. They don't like most authentic Mexican meat dishes vut rather more BBQ/ tex mex flavors that they think are Mexican just because theres some heat (even though they usually dont use the right chiles even). They aren't interested in corn tortillas, or Mexican caldos at all. I've often found that the best authentic mexican places in the u.k. usually have some negative reviews online from british people saying the food is weird and they also aren't as busy as the less authentic ones. Then before long they either close or they end up chsnging the menu to more bland americanized/anglicized food. There's isn't a large enough Mexican population that they can sell to while the british get slowly accustomed like what happens in the U.S..

So roasted meat and potatoes ... some fried fish and potatoes. ... Yeah. Really interesting video 😂

[@stevegray1308]

You two make a great couple, but beautiful Joss is wasted on a German bloke. I am older than Janik, definitely uglier, don't speak Spanish, probably more stupid and have no money, but I would be willing to help Joss out if she wanted an English bloke 😁. Oh, the sacrifices I am willing to make for international relations.

[@catalinamillan8165]
