The food was delicious and I especially loved the reclaimed wood bar, and the chunky recycled glasses. We enjoyed a mix selection of tapas, which was suggested by our very friendly and helpful waitress.
Wahaca offers fresh Mexican market food, which is unlike usual tex-mex of sizzling fajitas or cheesy nachos. The restaurant brings you a taste of the real food of Mexico with an evolving, seasonal menu. The fish is sustainable and served with a fresh, fiery green tomatillo sauce. The chicken is free-range chicken and is poached and served with delicious ingredients in a taquito, a quesadilla, an enchilada or in our Sonora salad with a slow-cooked chipotle chilli and garlic sauce. Delicious!
The restauant looks to promote natural produce and protect traditional, sustainable methods of growing food. The founder Thomasina Miers says “My aim was to see if I could work with small producers in Mexico to supply the restaurant in London with indigenous Mexican crops, but also to see how I could use English produce in the restaurant, thereby limiting the amount of imported food.”
We feel that Wahaca will be a huge success and judging by the long queues on Friday night, it seems like it already is. Here’s to more Wahaca restaurants opening soon!
