Daddy Donkey

Finding a good burrito in London is about as easy these days as securing a jumbo mortgage. Alas, our colleague Heather, who is visiting from Chicago for a couple weeks, alerted us to a place in Holborn called, of all things, Daddy Donkey, self described as a "kick ass Mexican grill." Indeed! Even better, it's not even a restaurant but an aluminum-sided food cart. Tucked away on Leather Lane (what a name) amidst dozens of stalls selling everything from tube socks to curry, the Donkey showed a little swagger by actually putting a switchback rope line in front to manage the crowd flow. We ate early (what else is new) at one of the outside card tables they had graciously provided (it was ~ 35 degrees today), but by the time I was picking the last remnants of chorizo and rice out of the tin foil wrapper, the queue had formed. Americans plumped from a recent Chipotle experience probably wouldn't think much of our new find, but by London standards this was excellent. Heather...what's next?
