Although it was a quiet evening when we walked in to make our take-away order, the promise of it being ready in five minutes seemed too good to be true. However, lo and behold, a swift handful of minutes (utilized to make a quick trip to the neighbouring Q2 for a movie rental) after we placed our order, there the bagged Mexican feast was patiently awaiting.
The Maya platter which consists of a large quartered cheesy quesadilla plus monsterously ricey and beany burrito sided with frozen veggie speckled rice, perfectly mushy beans, and salad of iceberg strips was enough to fill both of our not-thaaat-hungry, but very excited bellies.
The beauty of Mexictaco's combos is that you get the choice between beef, veg, chicken, or chorizo for your mains to create different variations of each meal. While the saucy beef worked well in the big burrito and the drier chicken strips made great contrasting textures with the ooey gooey cheese in the quesadilla, I'm already looking forward to mix things up next time.
The room's hanging sombreros and mariachi figurines are fun but the open room is otherwise sparsely decorated and overly bright. I'll probably stick to take out, but if you do the same (and are a fellow super fan of condiments), just be sure to check that you have enough sour cream to last you through your meal - they only provide a decorative zig zag if you don't ask. Don't worry if you forget though - There's always the delicious green chili sauce to keep things interesting.
