The worst application is pan-fried, primarily used instead of deep- or shallow-fried to tart something up that otherwise sounds rather boring.<\/p>\n<p>Masterchef are seasoned offenders: &#8220;Barry is serving pan-fried boeuf with twice cooked potato strips.&#8221; Translation: Barry is cooking steak and chips.<\/p>\n<p>Close behind is pan-[insert continent], normally a synonym for having an oversized menu. Wagamama, for instance, is often described as being pan-Asian. It&#8217;s usually indicative of the place being somewhat mediocre. Far better to do one thing well than to do a lacklustre job at everything.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, when someone referred to this restaurant as pan-Latino, I groaned a little inside (but booked in anyway &#8211; I&#8217;d wanted to go for a while).<\/p>\n<p>Vivo Latino&#8217;s exterior &#8211; a massive tricolour flag painted above a taverna-style wooden frontage &#8211; is a welcome splash of colour on Canton high street. I wonder, though, if anybody has told them that what is emblazoned on their fa\u251c\u00baade is actually the flag of the French speaking, West African nation of Guinea.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20219\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20219\" style=\"width: 3415px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20219\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3415\" height=\"2561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior.jpeg 3415w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-74x55.jpeg 74w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-111x83.jpeg 111w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-exterior-215x161.jpeg 215w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3415px) 100vw, 3415px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20219\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vivo Latino on Canton Street<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Inside, an abundance of wood, exposed brickwork and a broad colour palette give an unerringly South American feel.

Surely no chef could be proficient in this many cuisines? We decided to stick to Mexican.<\/p>\n<p>To kick things off we shared a pan of nachos. Cheese, soured cream, a spicy salsa; it&#8217;s hard to go wrong with nachos really.

Hot, crispy and well drained of their cooking oil, they joined a piquant salsa sat atop in being thoroughly enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>There were things I was not so keen on, however. Firstly, large chunks of vegetables (whole cherry tomatoes, even) have no place within my ideal taco. There was also a lack of soured cream and yet another shortage of Mexicanness.<\/p>\n<p>These are entirely forgivable offences: the beauty of tacos is that anything can go in them, and my preference for smoke and soured cream comes on account of me being a bit of an Old El Paso philistine.<\/p>\n<p>A less forgivable offence is that, despite the warm fillings mentioned above, cold shells and salad resulted in an overall tepid temperature. With the barbacoa, the entire taco was cold. Had they come out while the shells were still hot, they would&#8217;ve passed.<\/p>\n<p>Rounding off, we shared three chocolate filled churros with a pot of dulce de leche. I can&#8217;t say these weren&#8217;t tasty, but I&#8217;d be surprised if they were made on site. The dulce de leche was thinner than the plot of a shark themed horror movie.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20218\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20218\" style=\"width: 4032px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20218\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros.jpeg 4032w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-74x55.jpeg 74w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-111x83.jpeg 111w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-churros-215x161.jpeg 215w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4032px) 100vw, 4032px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20218\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Churros<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Our bill came to about \u252c\u00fa55, which included a cocktail, a beer and a chimichanga eaten by my partner but untried by myself.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20223\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20223\" style=\"width: 4032px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20223\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min.jpeg 4032w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-74x55.jpeg 74w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-111x83.jpeg 111w, https:\/\/cardiffstudentmedia.co.uk\/quench\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/11\/VL-drink-min-215x161.jpeg 215w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4032px) 100vw, 4032px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20223\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cocktail<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As overall experiences go, Vivo Latino was a positive one.
