Chico Bandito - Hackney

This restaurant is truly a hidden gem away from the hustle and bustle of the busy old street traffic. The atmosphere is vibrant and the staff are friendly. My friend and I visited during lunch and took advantage of the special prices. We were impressed with the tapas starters, which were only £3.65 each and came in generous portions.

This is a great place that is located in a next street between the old street and the liverpool street! they accept my gourmet company card so that I always have 50% of the food, but the worth of the full price eating anyway is exceptional in view of the portions. they can have a large selection of starters for around £4.95 and the net are around £10. Since the starters are so extensive, I usually share about 6/8 of them between two of us and one side of wedge at the negotiation price of £ 1.95 the sangria, wein and cocktails are also a decent price. really friendly service and they can wear a sombrero!

This allowed the gooey cheese, cool sour cream, spicy chorizo, and zesty guacamole to truly shine. For my main dish, I chose the huh chimichanga, which was a fried and filled tortilla the size of a softball.

Buffalo normally means deep fried, then tossed in some tangy hot sauce. These had been braised in some sweet BBQ sauce instead. Flaccid instead of crisp. My companion's starter of chilli beef sampler was really good, though. A very tasty chilli con carne with plenty of cumin and chilli powder. Both starters were garnished with some rather nice salad with little cubes of cucumber and tomato and baby spinach For mains, we both had salad. My companion had the asparagus and smoked salmon salad, which I didn't taste, except to...read more
