    If you haven’t had puffy tacos, the delicate and crackly shells of raw (not griddled) masa tortillas that have been deep-fried until crisp and delicate, before being wrapped around a filling, you’d best get on it. You’d be wise to initiate yourself at Vivo’s, the convivial Tex-Mex spot on Manor Road’s ever-growing restaurant row, where they are the especialidad de la casa. An order of Puffy Tacos ($8.95) includes two homemade tortillas (fried until puffy, of course), with choice of filling (we love the spicy beef picadillo and moist shredded chicken), along with brown rice and beans, and lettuce, tomato, and cheese. What’s more, ladies are presented with a flower when they leave. When’s the last time you received one of those on a dinner date…hmmm?

    This is a great review!
