WOAP2015: Pan de Muerto
Where? Pan de Muerto Mystic Mexican Cuisine (Wellington CBD, Wellington, New Zealand) Map Menu
When? Sunday August 30, 2015
Who? Tim, Juliann, Sarah, Leo
Food Style? Mexican
I remember the days when Pan de Muerto used to be on the corner of Kent Terrace and Marjoribanks Street, serving simple but good Mexican food like beef nachos, quesadillas and tacos, and, of course, margaritas to wash it all down. These days, they're a bit more high class, serving some real Mexican delicacies with plenty of flavour and character. I rated their burger very highly last year, and several recommendations from the Internet led me to choose Pan de Muerto as my final Wellington on a Plate stop for 2015.
Burger: Burger Mexicana
Corn and cinnamon-crusted chicken breast with char-grilled Anaheim chilli pineapple and guacamole in a housemade bun, with Mexican street corn and corn chips
A delicious, tangy salsa, corn chips, sweet corn bursting with flavour (damn good but not as good as Tequila Joe's) - and those were only the sides. The burger was sensational, the crispiest, most succulent chicken, sweetness in the pineapple and fantastic sauce to tie it all together. Would have easily eaten another one right on the spot, except no one else was keen and I would have looked like a glutton.
An absolutely fantastic way to finish Wellington on a Plate 2015. For that, I give them a nine out of ten.
