Vegan dishes and Mexican cuisine may seem like an oxymoron, but at ¡VIVA! by Chef Ray Garcia at Resorts World Las Vegas, guests choosing to abstain from meat can find an array of options to suit their dietary needs while still satisfying their tastebuds. I am happy to share more details on Chef Garcia’s vegan and vegetarian menu items for consideration in any upcoming relevant mindful eating features.
At ¡VIVA!, the menus showcase the best of Mexican food through a mix of traditional and contemporary techniques highlighted by bright and bold flavors. Locals and travelers alike can enjoy a dinner before hitting The Strip or a recovery brunch with a selection of mindful, yet delicious appetizers, entrees, and sides to choose from.
