A few weeks ago I went to Wahaca Restaurant in the Manchester Corn Exchange due to a friend who was raving about it and highly recommended it. The restaurant is a Mexican diner with amazing interiors. In terms of food, it aims for healthy and hearty which I can definitely say they achieve.
When it comes to portions there are two choices; get one standard size plate or several smaller ones. I opted for several smaller plates, which are referred to as 'Street Food', as I wanted to try a variety of Mexican food. The food arrives as soon as it's ready meaning you might be out of sync with your fellow diners but it makes for a more authentic and laid-back experience. The Street Food plates that I had were amazingly tasty and I'd recommend all three: Questadillas Smoky Chipotle Chicken, Taquitos Sweet Potato & Feta and a special which included pig cheek. To drink I had a fresh juice and a mocktail which I loved equally. Side note: I also recommend the guacamole and tortilla chips as a little starter or side - they're delicious!
As well as absolutely loving the food, I LOVED the interior. It's modern and colourful and totally added to the Mexican experience. The staff made the food all the more enjoyable and were as lovely as can be.
So, a short but sweet review but I just wanted to shout out an amazing restaurant which I recommend to everyone. Since I discovered Wahaca one of my friends (who is a vegetarian) has been due to my recommendation and she loved it as much as I did!
Fancy visiting Wahaca?
