Now before you think I am going to be mean, this was not claiming to be a burrito.  However I am still chucking it in here until we start a not-a-burrito research unit.  Anyway, it looked like a burrito and they had at least three Mexican style offerings so I feel like it’s ok to include a quickie review.

I was waiting at the bus stop in Liverpool St on my way home, wondering what to have for supper.  I wait at this particular bus stop quite often so I had spied It’s A Wrap many a time before so I thought I’d give it a try.

I went for a Mexican style chicken wrap – it wasn’t the feeble kind of  wrap you get for lunch at Boots or M&S – they went all out to give you a fat one.    It had rice (very plain but thankfully inoffensive) and chicken in a light sauce and a few black beans and some guacamole.  He asked if I wanted it spicy so I said yes.

This was actually better than I thought it’d be but I don’t think I’d bother going back, it was weird having chicken in a sauce but at least it seeped into the bland rice and infused it with a bit of flavour.  The thing I really missed from a proper burrito is the actual individual flavours you can pick out.  I got a hint of coriander but it was coriander seed rather than the green crunchy herb.

All in all, it was ok and it was ok value-wise (and it was head and shoulders above the thing that had the temerity to call itself a burrito at work) but it was nothing more than ok.
