Anytime we're in Berkeley, and craving a burrito, we hit Picante. And although they've got a few vegetarian items to offer, I repeatedly get the "Super" Picadillo de Legumbres - carrots, zucchini, & potatoes in red chile sauce (SUPER adds guacamole, cheese and cream, but I skip the cream). This burrito is huge! Enough so, that it is usually our only meal of the day. I especially love the house tomatillo salsa. But to really spice it up, we take our own Tapatio.
I've always been under the impression that the rice here is cooked with vegetable stock (as it says on the menu), but have read a few Yelp.com reviews that state otherwise. I'm going to check on this...
0-25 - $
25-50 $$
50-75 $$$
75-100 $$$$

We cook our Mexican rice in vegetable stock. It is completely vegan.
Thanks for your patronage!

I've visited Picante several times and have been under the impression
that the rice is cooked in vegetable stock, as it states on the menu.
However, after visiting Yelp.com, it appears that there are several
people who have asked and been told that the rice is cooked in chicken
stock.
Which is correct?
Thank you for your time,
Carrie Strope
