Last fourth dimension I had the prepare to select grip of from Liverpool Street to Stansted Airport (en-route to the Dordogne Valley, if you lot fancy checking out some of my foodie go snaps) I decided that it would last squeamish to depository fiscal establishment agree out a newer edition to my former Shoreditch stomping set down amongst an former friend who has too moved out of the EC postcode for a casual supper earlier heading to the pub to select grip of upward for a pint or two. DF/Mexico is the petty sis of Mexican giant Wahaca, together with has taken upward residence on the corner of Old Truman Brewery.
D/F United Mexican United States of America is share cafeteria, share restaurant. The kitchen together with bar are open, together with soft drinks together with agua frescas are self service ane time you've got your glass. Your server volition notice you lot your table, but you lot caput upward to the counter to social club your food, drinks together with whatever refills. You pay for it in that place together with then, but together with then your nutrient is brought to you.
They've got a skilful selection of local London beers, together with a pocket-size selection of frozen margaritas from the slushy machine. First nosotros tried the hibiscus together with passion fruit margaritas which were made past times swishing concentrated syrup around the glass, allowing the flavor to seep into the margarita every bit you lot drink, but I was to a greater extent than of a fan of the direct upward classic frozen release I had later; sometimes you lot simply can't better on perfection!
The nutrient comes inward surprisingly large portions, therefore it is slap-up for sharing. I was craving something big, greenish together with amongst avocado, therefore I went for their menage avocado salad, asset the feta: mild leaves, menage slaw, quinoa, pinkish pickles onions, ripe avocado together with strips of fried tortilla, all brought together amongst a tangy dressing. I'd telephone vociferation upward this a sharing side betwixt ii or iii people, or a skilful veggie repast inward itself amongst a side of the menage crinkle fries; wonderfully crisp on the outside, together with calorie-free together with fluffy inward the middle.
We were visiting on a Tuesday, therefore plainly I had to social club tacos, amongst fries together with salsa on the side. I had a duet of pulled pork tacos amongst salad, slaw, pinkish pickled onions and habanero peppers. They were bloody delicious, but I'd interrogation the utilisation of soft corn tacos shells; after eating close one-half a taco the juice from the pulled pork caused the whole affair to autumn apart together with I got real sticky! I'd either recommend a knife together with fork (which variety of defeats the signal of a taco!), therefore adjacent fourth dimension I intend I'd social club the less-liquid chicken or fish tacos.
My companion (always known to social club the dish amongst the most pith together with the to the lowest degree green!) ordered a grilled steak, finished amongst a chilli rub earlier cooking together with served amongst fries (there was too the alternative of cerise rice) together with a chipotle hibiscus salsa. I was to a greater extent than distracted past times my taco, kid together with salad mountain, but I intend it was slap-up every bit it was polished off rather quickly!
I wishing we'd had had room for dessert, because they receive got vanilla edible bean soft serve amongst a pick of raspberry amongst popping candy, passion fruit amongst caramelized coconut, together with dulce de leche together with candied peanuts past times means of toppings. As good every bit the Shoreditch restaurant, in that place is too a D/F United Mexican United States of America on Tottenham Court Road for all you lot Soho/ Fitzrovia run workers.
