Burrito, Quesadilla & Nachos @ Viva Mexico

Shrimp Burrito (S$22)

Cheese Quesadilla

Cheese Nachos

According to Time Out Singapore, this is one of the closest you can find for authentic Mexican food. Some reviewers commented not to expect "tex-mex" style food here. I don't know if it's true or not, whatever it was -- it was delicious.

I ordered their burrito with prawns. You can choose to have beef, pork and chicken if you want. It was served with Mexican rice and sauce. The burrito was very good. Unfortunately, I had stuffed myself with the nachos and quesadilla that I couldn't finish it off. All the dishes were very filling with a generous serving size. The surprise of the entire dish was the Mexican rice. It was white rice mixed in with basil (?) and it was sweet, herby and refreshing to eat with the burrito.

As mentioned above, we ordered their nachos and quesadilla for appetizers. You can also choose to add beef, pork and chicken to both dishes. We only had cheese. The guacamole was delicious and the nacho chips seemed homemade - just the right amount of salty to go along with the salsa, guacamole and chilies.

Unless you haven't eaten for days or not as heavy eaters like we were, I suggest you stick to ordering one dish. The burrito would have been enough for me without the nachos and quesadilla.

The verdict was we would definitely go back. The next time we'll skip the appetizers in order to appreciate the main courses more.
