‘Try’ of the Week: Wahaca Sauces

Those who know me ‘in real life’ will know I am a huge lifelong Take That fan. Seriously I mean obsessed. My friend and I could regularly be found sat outside Manchester Airport or Gary Barlow’s house in our youth just waiting for a glimpse of our favourite boy band. I’d like to say things  have changed but only slightly. Now we can be found stressing from the day a new tour is announced, sleeping outside ticket sales venues to guarantee our tickets. This is followed by sitting outside the said venue all day waiting to get in as soon as possible to guarantee front row seats. Call us what you will but we love it 😉 This year we decided 3 visits to the Manchester tour dates wasn’t enough and ventured to Wembley for one of the dates. We are lucky to have a good friend who lives in Central London who was happy to share his sofa with us. My friend had never seen the sights of London before so he took us around on our first day there so she could be a typical tourist.

This is the 2 of them walking up to Buckingham Palace, we had so much fun!

When it comes to food he said he would take us for Mexican like we would never have seen before and boy, did he!

We went to Wahaca which serves Mexican ‘street food’ and authentic tequila to be drank with a bloody mary style mix as pictured with the menu above. It was fabulous and I am gutted they don’t have a branch in Manchester.

So where am I going with this story? Well, I was out shopping at Asda with my Mum this weekend and, when I say Asda, I mean the small version in my village. It is tiny and I regularly get frustrated that they don’t have what I want to buy. But look what I found…

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I nearly squealed with delight! They had 3 different types but I thought this would be the milder of them all so bought it 🙂 We had a BBQ on Saturday night so put this on the burgers… it certainly packs a punch when it comes to heat, I couldn’t eat a lot but it does have a deliciously smoky after taste. Tasty is the best word I can think of for it actually. I’m hoping this is a sign that the Wahaca chain are going nation wide and I can indulge in my new found love for tequila, pork scratchings and street food Mexican style.

I’ll leave you with a picture from the concert… we found the London date to be a much nicer environment than the Manchester ones. The fans were more friendly, despite what people say about people from ‘the City’, and the sun shined on us all day. Always a bonus.
