W Hotel

Mexico City

Deep in the Polanco district of Mexico City you’ll find one of the swankiest hotels in Latin America, equipped with one of the funkiest restaurants. The rooftop terrace is the perfect place to enjoy your burger and fries; and the cocktail bar downstairs the perfect place to go as the party gets going.

Fast food restaurant reviews: why do we think of burgers as ‘fast food’?

Burgers have a pretty poor image because it’s hard to untangle them from the words ‘fast food’. Good food is really hard to do ‘fast’; sure, you can flip a fillet steak for a minute either side on a hot grill and it’s great, but ‘fast’ normally means ‘cheap’ and ‘cheap’ normally means poor quality, and poor quality means you don’t want to go there! So ponder this: 30 years ago the British Sausage had a deserved reputation for being ‘cheap’ - remember they contained more other stuff than meat (a pretty sorry state of affairs for a meat product)? But then came the gourmet sausage with everything from high pheasant and wild boar to apple and blackberries. It may be a while before we’re having a ‘Angus Big Mac with Port & Stilton sauce’, but we can’t help think someone’s missing a trick.
