I ate Mexican in London today. the guac was horrible (as it has always been in Europe, in my experience... nothing compares to California avocados I guess) but the burrito itself was pretty acceptable. actually my mom and I split the burrito and fish and chips, so it was a very funny English/Mexican mix.
