Eating Mexican food with chopsticks! Birria Ramen in London!!

Eating Mexican food with chopsticks! Birria Ramen in London!!

Birria is a Mexican meat stew (traditionally made with goat meat but these days you can also get beef, lamb or chicken.)

The rich meat broth is simply rich and concentrated served with Lime, Onion, Cilantro to take the taste to the level!

Some bright spark in America invented the Birria ramen which is basically delicious noodles in this tasty broth!

Instead of travelling to the states, I was so lucky to find a place in London that serves it at Birria Taco which is located inside another restaurant.

At Birria Taco, they offer lamb or beef birria ramen so we tried both.

The lamb broth was more concentrated and saltier compared to the beef but according to the staff, both broths were meant to be the same.

The best thing were the noodles, I felt that they couldn't have made a better choice of noodles because they hung the broth well and absorbed the flavours.

They reminded me of curly instant noodles with a flat wavy shape.

Every mouthful was bliss because you got this strong meaty broth along with the spices as if you were eating a taco with delicious hot noodles.

The key to this ramen is also the pickles, radish, onions and cilantro but I felt that more onions and cilantro is needed to give it that full on experience.

I also felt that their onion and cilantro could have been fresher as it was not as flavourful as it should be.

To summarize, I will definitely be returning because £9.50 was definitely worth paying!

Hopefully their lamb and beef broths will be consistent in taste.

The location of this place is hard to find because it is hidden inside this other restaurant which has no windows or a see through front door.

On a side, I got trapped in the toilet because the lock was too high in the corner which made it hard to get out unless you really pry with your fingers, so if you had long nails, you would be screwed.
