there's a Santa Fe in Bluewater (http://www.bluewater.co.uk) that we go to quite often. i really like them! some of their food is a bit too spicy for me, but they'll tone it down if you ask. i've never had a bad meal there, even when it's just for their burgers wrapped in tortilla. the fries they serve with it are deliciously spiced and i'm not a fry person. their desserts are heavenly. i had the toasted coconut and rum ice-cream the last time and it's served in a big cookie-ish thing and i'm getting really hungry writing this comment right now...

I was never sure how to get to Bluewater, but idle staring at a DLR map the other day showed me that trains go there. Do you drive there?

I'd be very interested in seeing what the restaurant is like - and more of their desserts - having tried some of the highlights!

if you take the train to Greenhithe (you might have to change at Dartford), there's a shuttle bus that takes you straight there i believe. we drive there as it's only a fifteen minute drive away for us. we're there all the time!

maybe we should meet up and go there together sometime? i'm not sure when i'll be free because of all the stuff happening this month (xmas festivities, possibly moving, etc.), but maybe sometime in the new year?

I would love to. I don't have time until New Year's either. The next few weeks are a little crazy, and even the first half of January isn't that sedate. The second half, however, should be entirely feasible.

As a child of the southwest, may I say that burgers wrapped in tortillas are just wrong? Flour tortillas are mostly wrong, anyway. Argh.

Also wrong is the recent discovery that I have become allergic to avocados. Apparently, people with allergies to latex often develop allergies to avos and figs. I am too young to give up guacamole. Oh well -- I can still make it, if I wear gloves!

But Mexican food sans avocado isn't quite right.

I don't doubt the taste :-) just the concept!

but then tacos are kinda like burgers ...

my new discovery is salvadorean pupusas -- amazingly unhealthy, but tasty. There's a Salvadorean bakery, restaurant, and pupuseria (it's a real word!) down the street a few blocks from me -- pupusas are kind of like fritters, I guess -- dough wrapped around beans, cheese meat, whatever, and fried, served with a fresh salsa that's kind of mild and sweet and a spicy marinated cabbage salad.
