Right now, my two sisters and brother in law are roadtrippin' it up in Californi-a. I am beyond jealous and it's something we're not going to dwell on! Swiftly moving on...so the night before they all left we had a night out in London town (but secretly I pretended I had joined them on the Cali trip!)
Mel, who currently lives in Yorkshire, is an avid follow of my blog and has been watching and drooling over our past few months of Mexican madness. So when she arrived in London she wanted to be taken to the best Mexican we had eaten at so far. Mara and I both decided it just had to be Santo on Portobello Road...if for no other reason to try some of their amazing chile nachos again!! and this time I got a better shot of them on my camera too!
I opted for Enchiladas, as this is usually my fave Mexican dish, but I have to say I was left craving some burrito loving once the girls dishes arrived...
and that's saying something because I've made it clear before I am not a burrito fan but the burrito's at Santo are hands down amazing!
Mel was definitely impressed and being the veggie she is, she was pleased at their choice of veggie dishes too!
Afterwards we ended the evening with something sweet at Lucky 7. We toasted to a great Cali trip with our milkshakes (again I was pretending I was in on it too!) Oh how I wish I was milkshaking it up with them right now! Last I heard they had rented bikes along Santa Monica boardwalk, eaten at an amazing Mexican restaurant and found a cupcakery with a frostinator machine where you could make your own cupcakes!!!if that doesn't scream perfect holiday I don't know what does!
I had a mint Oreo shake, while Mel grabbed a double thick chocolate malt and Mara had her old favourite of banana.
It was a great night out, and whilst I'm missing them all loads I'm even more excited for their return because of all my favourite American goodies they have promised to bring me! Roll on A&W, mint Oreo's and maybe just maybe a few cupcakes!!
