Beach Burrito Company is another TwoThousand staple feeding venue previously overlooked by our online reams of dining praise.
In our defence, it's only because we eat there so much it seems like home. (If home was a prime cut of North Bondi real estate, so beachfront that you can taste the salt in the air, with a never-empty kitchen full of toothsome Californian-Mexican street food, set to a consistently well-curated soundtrack.
Mad Mex is kind of like a middle child. We love him just as much as every other Mexican restaurant we've featured, but somehow we forgot to include him. Which is ridiculous when you consider how great he is.
Conveniently sitting across from Gaslight, this three-step eatery renews our faith in fast food, because well, it's real food.
Sharing the 60x300cm space behind a counter full of beans, mince, salsa and corn chips are two dark-haired, Mexican goddesses. These are the ladies who will save you from the Great Depression - the sadness experienced every time you hand over 20 bucks for a mystery sandwich and a bottle of water...and only get coins for change.
Little local folklore for ya - Flying Fajita Sistas flew up to Sydney late last year from Wollongong, bringing along a tasty range of killer margaritas, a staff of friendly, beautiful women, and a name destined to be referred to the "Flying Vagina Sistas" (by me, at least). Do you think they play these?
OH, about the food - let just say this is now neck-and-neck with Café Pacifico for the BEST Mexican in town.
Not sure how P.C it is to compare a café to a cross-dressing queen, but other than boring Clark Kent doing a quick change in a phone box and reappearing as a superhero - I couldn't think of a better analogy. And somehow they still both revert back to men in lycra...
Chocolate Dog Café is the drag queen of the café scene, saying bye bye to Bacon & Eggs Belinda and hello to Guacamole Gustavo in the evenings.
Any buddy who's visited the U.S. will tell you there is an amazing abundance of good, cheap Mexican joints all over the map. Yet despite having nearly every other facet of American culture jammed down our throats, we Aussies have always missed out.
Our new amigo Tomatillo is here to help turn the tide, offering tasty authentic Mexi-grub at super affordable prices.
Mexicans are awesome. Tamales, sombreros, lowriders, hair nets, chihuahuas, Speedy Gonzales, Salma Hayek, Ricky Martin...Too bad Down Under we can't get much of La Vida Loca. Seriously, most Sydney Mexican restaurants can't tell a fajita from a fagina, and their margaritas? Like a salt-lick doused in Gatorade.
