Yaza mektup

In London, you are predominantly in search of some things. The things vary from a night bus that takes you home to a repairperson, a pub serving food after 10 p.m. to a coffee shop with proper lemon cake, a table outside; a quiet hood, a roommate, a washer-dryer, a sewing machine. Me, I am searching for Mexican food, AKA burritos, tacos, enchiladas (and the list goes on).My perpetual forage started a few years ago when Crazy Homies in Notting Hill shut down. That spot was a superb combo of casual yet chic, serving the finest Tex-mex style wraps, a place where the dinner before the party at <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/trailerh/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Trailer Happiness</a> becomes a night in, around the table, ordering more tequila. I loved that scene so much that I offered to buy their carafe and shot glasses on multiple occasions, I helped them wipe the tables so I could stay until they closed. It didn’t matter that it was outside of my range for nights out, which is anywhere further away than a 30-minute bus drive home. For Crazy Homies, we would tolerate changing buses, waiting for long-overdue tubes, the drunk crowd(s) after 2 a.m.Since their “adieu”, reasons yet unknown, I’ve been searching for my next destination where the carrots and onions are pickled, guacamole is served accompanied by oven cooked tortilla chips, black beans with the exact right amount of cumin. Until that announcement, here is a list of Mexican savours for when you are craving tacos.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/8/6/1663402464086.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" width="550" ratio="0.75" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">Tacos Padre, Borough Market<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom: none; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;"><a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/tacospadre/?hl=en" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Tacos Padre</a>,&nbsp;Borough Market:&nbsp;That al fresco taqueria is my go-to place after a visit to Tate Modern.

Sometimes they would pick a greener tomato or a different herb to season it with. But their homemade blue corn masa flatbread and salsa borracha stays put. They have Taco Tuesdays, which means four street tacos for £12. They are also opening a bar/dance floor/hangout next door.<a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/tacosdel74/?hl=en" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Del74,</a>&nbsp;Dalston:&nbsp;If you are a Dalston inhabitant who walks back and forth on Kingsland High Street, I’m sure you heard their tunes before.

Pét-nat, Fransızca doğal köpüren anlamına gelen pétillant naturel’in kısaltılmış hâli. “Pét-nat”&nbsp;artık köpüklü doğal şarap için Fransa dışında da kullanılan bir kısaltma. Arcadia’nınki epey lezzetli, kıvamı yerinde ve portakallı oralet rengiyle insanı güneşli teraslarda hararetten kurtaran bir şişe. Ben Cihangir’deki La Cave’da buldum. Doğal şaraplar kendi mayasıyla köpüren ve kükürtsüz şaraplar oldukları için şişede gazlanma devam ediyor. Bu yüzden satın alındıktan sonra çok uzun süre bekletmeden tüketmek ve açmadan özellikle soğuk bir yerde muhafaza etmek mühim. Ayrıca sabraj yapmak için ideal bir şişe fakat ziyan etmesi de büyük suç bir lezzet.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/5/3/1655276914501.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" width="550" ratio="0.56" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">G.A.'nın evinde tek başına sofra kurdurtulduktan az sonra<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom: none; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">• 🌽 Cips: İştah Açanlar’da hakikaten iştah açan kıtır mı kıtır bir atıştırmalık paylaşmak insanın içine pek bir siniyor. Bu yaz başı denk geldiğim Mister Free’d Blue Maize cipsi, Türkiye’de yediğim en iyi tortilla cipsi. Mavi mısır unundan yapılan cips, üçgen şeklini alıp fırınlandıktan sonra hızlıca yağda kızartılıp tuzlanıyor. Mavi mısır Meksika ve Güneybatı Amerika’ya has bir bitki, rengi dışında protein oranı olarak da sarı mısırdan ayrılıyor. Mister Free’d cipslerin 135 gram paketi yaklaşık 46 lira, özel zamanların atıştırmalığı olabilir. Guacamole yerine biraz daha hesaplı, nane ve dereotu gibi otlu bir beyaz fasulye ezmesiyle iyi gider.
