El Vergel (Borough)

• M reliably informed that the menu is mainly Chilean inspired
• The weekend brunch menu here is extensive and is served from 10 4 on Saturdays and Sundays
• Concrete and wooden benches are offset by colourful artwork
• By lunchtime that place is almost full
• I went for the Special Latin American breakfast which was free range scrambled eggs in a mild piquant salsa sauce with chorizo
• The food arrived quickly along with a decent coffee
• Both of which were mildly spiced and well put together
• The Kidney beans in particular were laced with chilli in a way as to not overpower the rest of the dish
• The village bread was a flatbread
• Obviously freshly made and was perfect for mopping the guacamole and salsa sauce
• Is a bit like a south American pasty and washed it down with a Cusqueñ
• The salsa served with the empanada was so fresh and packed with flavour
• Tacos and tostadas with positive reviews
