Fair enough, I actually agree tolteca is a bit bland, but what exactly were you expecting the server to do?

Ensure the ingredients were drained before being ladled on and then evenly distributed.

I had the Burrito bowl in PP on Baggot st today is the meat supposed to be cold in it?

For any southside Boojum fans, a new one is soon to open on Kevin Street just down from the junction with Wexford Street. Looks fairly finished on the outside, not sure about inside as the shutters are always down by the time I pass by

I noticed that yesterday. Not the best location imo, as it's a little too far down Kevin St for passing trade. However I bet their rent is much lower than Burritos and Blues on the corner, so as long as they get the students in, they should do well.

Burritos and Blues will certainly see a hit due to direct competition around the corner.

Hoping his Boojum is as good as the northside one is.

It defo looks much bigger than the northside one which is a problem withnot much room to sit down. Inside looks like its nearly all kited out but it was hard to judge from outside.

So the new boojum has been open a few days ago. I went yesterday and it was a great experience. The ingredients seemed even better. The place is pretty big and the layout really good. One weird bad thing is that someone messed up the wooden floor big time and there huge bumps on it. Like the placef too many pieces of wood for the amount of space. I have no idea how that could even happen. Even saw a staff memeber trip over it.

Went to Boojum again the other day and it was crazy messy again. As soon as I tore off the top of the tin foil a mixture of pico/sour cream ran down over my fingers and onto the table. The burrito then began to sag over my fingers (with tin foil still on, although the tin foil didn't even fully wrap around the burrito!). Very tasty but a bit impractical to eat.

Strange I've had like 50 there and never had it messy, but i've switched to burrito bowls anyway, the way forward!

Burrito bowls are way more consistent in quality than the wraps. Also the ingredients tend to be more evenly divided. Must try the new boojum.

There's a new "mexican pantry" place opening on South Richmond Street in Portobello. Only saw the small sign, slightly excited especially with new Boojum down the road too....

WeleaseWoderick

There's a sign over the building next door to Tesco Camden Street saying that it is reserved for a Tolteca.

Saw that last week but didn't look like work had started yet.

PauloConn

Wait, isn't that Camden Rostisserie, the chicken plane next door to that Tesco's? Or has that closed down....
Wouldn't be too pushed about Tolteca though

Yeah this is why I get them, and you can mix them up to your desire, much tastier.

I could be wrong but I think there is a small place in between the two that used to be Rhubarb Cafe or something like that. Painted a mint green with a Coca Cola ad on the shutters, it's been closed for quite a while now. I assumed it was there but the person who posted about it can hopefully confirm

Nah, it's not a coca cola ad, think it's a piece of masers work. Reads "Everything is better with..." and the cola bottle has "cop-on" instead of coca cola :pac:

Anyway, yeh, old cafe closed since boom times. Very small from what I can remember of the premises.

PauloConn

Oh yeah, forgot about that place alright. Good buritto sized location too

Bandana boy

While I actually prefer the full Menu and atmosphere in Blues and Burritos , (the Quesada and the Salsa fries are all kinds of awesome) I think Pablos does the best Pork Burrito out there

Anyone tried the place next to the Four Courts yet?

PauloConn

Yes and its amazing..... you get to sit on painted pallets

Food good too

heh, I've been there twice and both times it was a big hot mess!

Tasty though, will try a bowl before too long. Tolteca is too far away from my new digs

Useful.Idiot

I have only tried Boojum, Pablos and a burrito Bowl in Tolteca on Suffolk St. so far. Boojum is still my favourite and Tolteca was very bland indeed as others have mentioned. Still very eager to give Burritos & Blues a go!

I went back and forth between Mama's Revenge and Boojum's for some time but I'm firmly with Mama's Revenge. Their Jumbo Burrito is the ultimate burrito experience in Dublin, IMO.
