In case you didn't know Westfield is a mammoth sized shopping centre. There are a few of them dotted around London, but I like the Shepherd's Bush one best. Within this labyrinth there are numerous stalls selling varieties of different types of food, a food court in other words. I've tried a few of them and they all have their good points. My favourite however is Nineteen Ten.
Much like a school canteen, you take your tray and slide it along and choose the fillings for your burrito. First layer can be either Rice, Black Beans or Pinto Beans. The second layer either Steak, Grilled Veg, Chicken or Carnitas. The third is your choice of sauce, Picco de Gallo, Salsa Verde, Corn Salsa or maybe Salsa Salsa Roja. Finally you top it off with either Sour Cream, Cheese, Lettuce or Guacamole.
I had the Spicy Beef. It was huge and utterly delicious (£8.95 depending on your toppings). The meat was melt in your mouth, the sauces were spicy and all the accompaniments worked well together.
They also have Quesadillas, Tacos, Carne Con Cerveza (meat marinated in beer to tenderise) served in a bowl over rice and sprinkled with cheese and tortilla chips).
I only really go for the burritos though, because aside from the Chimichanga I had in San Fransisco many years ago this is one of the nicest I've found in London. Odd it's in a mall, but it's good so I'll overlook that.
