El Vez
If you’re from
Philly, you know Stephen Starr! One of his best and well-known restaurants is
El Vez located in Midtown Village. El Vez offers contemporary Mexican cuisine
in an inviting atmosphere. Inside the restaurant has fun décor such as a photo-booth,
oversize velvet couches and a motorcycle in as a center piece of the bar.
I recently went
with my sister, mom and great family friend, Beverly for dinner one evening
last week. We had a lovely time catching up over great food with great company!
I got the Black
Bean Enchiladas which entails caramelized
onions and chihuahua cheese in a smoked yellow tomato sauce. The cheese and
sauce is what really made this dish because you’re not used to seeing both
items! The smoked yellow tomato sauce gave the dish a nice spice and kick to
it.
My mom and Beverly got the Chicken Enchiladas Suizas and my
sister got the Mexican Chopped Salad which is always a favorite of ours. We
have been to El Vez plenty of times before and will always return because we
love the authenticity of the food!
