Drank the proper way, i.e. lime wedge rubbed in the V of your finger and thumb, sprinkled with salt, then lick your hand and down the shot. Repeat as required. You ever been to a Wahaca restaurant? Good Mexican stuff there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 37803 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) No, I haven't, mate. The best 'Mexican' food I've had in a restaurant was in Greece, funnily enough (http://www.senor-zorba.gr/). I could murder a burrito like. Trivia tidbit: Burrito means little donkey in Spanish.

Didn't know that, but thinking about it, it makes sense. Burro is donkey and the "ito" suffix mean little. Like Chicharito means "Little Pea". Love finding about shit like that, ta http://www.wahaca.co.uk is the website for that mexican place by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
