While in Austin for the break, I decided to take Liz to one of my favorite restaurants for lunch, a place both equally good for women and spicy palates: Vivo, also available on Yelp. Behold, the power of cheese:
Since I lived less than a 100 yards a way from Vivo for a year while I attended school at University of Texas, it’s a safe guess that I’ve eaten at Vivo about 30-40 times in my life. Thus, I can confidently say three things really stand out about Vivo:
- The Sala is amazing – chipotle balances between spice and smokey flavor.
- The vegetarian enchilado sauce is unqiue – its a little sweet, and goes great with the salsa.
- They usually hand out roses to female customers (bonus for dates)
To begin, we started with their salsa. It was as tasty and spicy as remembered.
Next, my entree: the vegetarian enchiladas. Although I forgot to make my usual substitution for white cheese, they were still delicious.
Liz ordered a vegetarian puffy tacos, which were bean and cheese puffy tacos served with beans and rice.
Overall, I love this place, as evident by the fact I ate Liz’s leftover’s later that night.
Taste: 9
Price: $10 / person
