Zuzu

Zuzu's claim to fame is that its traditional Mexican offerings are made fresh and by hand each day, without lard or chicken stock. Accordingly, the food is delicious, although their purportedly healthy dishes tasted anything but. Granted, my choice of their queso-smothered rice, bean, and cheese chimichanga probably wasn't the dish they were referring to when they said they served healthy Mexican food. I managed to push visions of my arteries aside and enjoyed this amazingly decadent meal. I tried to exercise restraint in my choice of sides and ordered the simple and tasty green salad and their corn relish, which tasted too much like canned corn for me to enjoy. My partner had the sunrise breakfast burrito, filled with eggs, black beans, mozzarella, and grilled vegetables. His burrito certainly rivaled my chimichanga, in addition to the perfect combination of breakfast burrito elements, the dish had a vague curry taste which made it especially interesting. Zuzu claims to have the best flan in Austin, which we were unable to try after our huge lunches. But after our great experience, we will certainly be back to test this claim.
