If you have a hankering for a burrito as well as a cheap handbag, Leather Lane is the place to be. Nestled among the bric-a-brac, cheap shoes and pinafores is this behemoth of an operation – Daddy Donkey is a self-proclaimed ‘kick-ass Mexican grill’. Started by Joel Henderson in 2005, the stall has grown massively over the past few years but has still managed to keep the quality of their offerings consistent. Whether you’re having the cutely-named ‘three amigos’ (three small tacos), a ‘naked burrito’ (sans tortilla, replaced with salad) or the Daddy D burrito, choose from six fillings (a step above other burrito stalls), including tomatillo beef (shredded beef cooked with green tomatillos and lime salsa; £5.95), picodillo (ground beef cooked in with garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, oregano, chipotle and tomato; £5.50). The combinations are endless, but there is one constant – be prepared to queue.

The most similar at the Guajaqueño style.. not exactly, but good enough!! The extra hot is just normal hot in Mexico!

A shadow of its former self. T£1.50 for teaspoon of gauc an 2 japenos seemed a little excessive, but given how dispapointing the burrito was it certianly wasn't worth. all rice and no meat - there are far better places in the market offering much better value. a shame as it used to be good. a victim of its own success

Good, but does not hit the spot... London has yet to see a true Mexican food truck.
