El Machete

Description:

• Not the easiest place to find in the city as it's located off the Prospekt in a courtyard, which isn't that unusual in itself here, but the signs directing you to it are certainly difficult to pick out. Once you find it however it's a revelation. Everything looks very authentic without any pompous trimmings and the food which is one hundred per cent Mexican, chilli peppers and all, is going at prices which aren't a strain on Petersburgers' pockets but definitely a liberating challenge to their taste buds.
