Killer Tomato

This review is by an American from California who has eaten innumerable food stand burritos, and is written from that perspective. This is also a review for the food stand (I understand there’s an actual restaurant with some other items on the menu as well, though I did not visit it).
I ran across this joint after having coffee at Prufrock nearby (which is a fantastic coffee shop if you’re in to pourovers and higher-​end coffees). It seems I’ve tried a street burrito or two from every city I visit, and by chance, this was what I encountered in London.
There is one item on the menu: Torpedo Burrito, either with meat, sweet potatoes, or both. I opted for everything, as spicy as it comes.
Now, a Mexican burrito this is not. Sweet potatoes and feta cheese are atypical ingredients, but I was impressed with how well the entire thing worked together, considering the other constituents are what you would expect in a burrito. The hot sauce definitely has a «white man» vibe to it (think more like Aardvark than Tapatio), though it fit the theme of the burrito well. When I ordered the hottest it came, it ended up being about medium on the Mexican or «California burrito» scale, though I would consider it on the spicy end for typical British fare, and most chain-​loving Americans would probably consider it to be spicy as well (then again, they probably wouldn’t be at a food stand tucked away out there either). It’s worth the upgrade for the guacamole-​filled taquito.
It was large, filling, cheap (comparable to what you would pay in the States, I can’t comment on the specific food truck burrito pricing economy of London), and although most definitely a British take on the dish, I enjoyed it. If I lived nearby, I could see myself frequenting Killer Tomato. Though I have little to compare it to, it’s probably on the better end of British burritos, however it would probably be relegated to more of a unique side-​burrito stateside.
Apparently, this location shifts from time-​to-​time, though this is where I found it the week I was in town (the road surrounded by other food stands – a good place to find food in general).
