Saw the Wahaca place on Masterchef the other night....

Yes! So nice to have a Masterchef success story. I loved Thomasina back when she was on it.  :)

Am I the only one whose brain twitches at the spelling of Wahaca?  I get that it's on purpose, but it's really bothersome.

Wahaca isn't much like Chipotle at all.

Now, places like Mucho Mas are almost identical - I think someone said there was another Chipotle-esque joint in Westfield mall now.

Ummmm...  That would be Wahaca I am afraid, the new White City one...

Yup, bothers me too. But then I can't look at a Toys R Us without cringing.  :-[

But agree with you, Chary, about the fastfood!!! My Father nearly fell off his chair at Wendy's when I told him that the boys and I dont eat fast food.. :D (after dragging us to three different fast food joints within a week!)

Yes, I am "banned" from eating fast food.  My partner refuses to go there and now I am over 2 years fast food free.  The closest we get is the odd Nandos and Subway if we are on the run.  I used to be a 5 day a week fast food junkie in the States.  Also used to be 6.5 stone (90lbs) heavier to prove it.

I can't look at Toys R Us without cringing, either.  But I think that's mainly because of the short, toy obsessed company I keep. ;D

It drives me crazy. It's a perfect example of the 'dumb-afication' of society.
The only fast food I miss is Henry's Tacos in North Hollywood, as shown in my avatar.  :)

More Chilis?  I am afraid I must disagree on that one.   ;)  But I do agree about Wahaca.


I went to Wahaca today at the Westfield Mall. Husband wasn't too impressed but I thought the tortilla soup and the pibil tacos were to die for!
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say
"Thank you for being a friend!"

I know!  How dare we expect people to learn how to pronounce words in (gasp!) another language!!

THANK YOU!  I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure out which taco stand that was!

No, but I've driven by it enough that it looked soooooo familiar.  Although I have a feeling you're about to scold me for never eating there. ;)

Chipotle... Chili's... P.F. Chang's?  Please take them and don't let them come back. :-X :-X :-X

Well I will take P.F. Changs off your hands then out of those options (because I do really enjoy their food!)- I just don't like seeing american chains take over the world! McDonalds and Pizza Hut are already too good at that!
