Can't think of any great Mexican restaurants either. There is a decent one near Stamford Bridge whose name I can't remember but I wouldn't exactly go out of my way to get there. Wahaca is alright but tries too hard to be hipster. KK's in Croydon is decent for a small gathering or a deliveroo but it aint exactly gourmet and its one letter away from being a hate crime.

I live in Croydon, what is this KK's you speak of?
If you just wanna have a strong burrito you can go to 'El camion' in Soho but wouldn't necessarily call it a fashionable Mexican place.
Its towards South Croydon near Galicia and Annas Thai. Looks a bit naff from the outside and its the kind of place where they whack a Sombrero on your head but the foods alright.
Mestizo is alright for bigger plated, but if you've come from somewhere that has easily available good Mexican food, it's average at best.
Santo Remedio is decent too, but nothing spectacular

There's one resturant that tries to be decent in South Croydon, but yeah as whole not great for food.
By Facism Go To PostMake sure to invest in a good stab vest and something that can dilute acid
This unfortunately is not a joke
also if you want to see mental illness in action, go to a Speaker's Corner. Fucking state of the NHS, that.

Would anybody in London / the EU in general like authentic Mexican food? Even my brother in law from Virginia said he wasn’t ready for it out here in Cali. He’s a huge fan now, but it took some getting used too.

By Bold 2 in One Go To PostI'm gonna be controversial lads, Mexican food, kinda overrated.
I'd agree but my only experience with Mexican food is Chiquitos and a enchilada ready meal from the Asda.

Basically what if boils down to, I think it's shit but that because I think most in london are pretty average.

It would be hard to resist pretending to be from England. That accent is so easy to imitate, nobody would know bettah

FWIW, I grew up around Scouse accents and still barely understand them when they go full on LERD like Carragher there.
at least the scouse accent is funny

Bruv, there are dozens of accents in England alone. Factor in the mixture of Scottish and Irish accents, and you multiply that ten-fold. North England, Mid-West (Manchester-area) Mid-East (Sheffield-area), South Engand (Longdon-area), South-East and South West, and Wales all have very distinct sounds and multiple variations within each region (stiff-lipped English in London vs. Cockney, as an example). I've gotten good at picking out who's from what area. The more harder it is to understand the accent, the more northern they are, from my experience.
I'd say Mid-West and Mid-East sort of covers Midlands as a whole largely. I guess, I should separate Leeds/Yorkshire, but the park districts all north of Leeds has a fairly small population, no?
Edit: I think I need to brush up on my English geography a bit more. But for the purpose of accents, I can't say I've met too many people from that region to remember those accents.

By FortuneFaded Go To PostYou cannot lump Birmingham and Manchester into the same accent
Hahahaha. What have I done.
Soooo...are you a Brummy or Manc?

I'd rather run a capsaicin-laced razor blade over my tongue.
