SalsaReaders' Pick: CHEVYS FRESH MEX RESTAURANTMultiple locationsThese days, no Mexican restaurant can get away with a bland multipurpose salsa that pleases the sensitive while distressing those who aren't convinced until tears flow. So Chevy's has several different salsas that vary in style and heat factors, thus helping variety-minded readers name them No. 1 for the second year in a row. The popular Macayo Vegas chain earned a strong second place from hot-minded voters. Our Pick: VIVA MERCADOS6182 W. Flamingo Road4500 E. Sunset Road, Henderson This is heaven for those of us who like to push the hot salsa envelope. The Mercado family stocks a variety of salsas that are explained and rated 1 to 10 on the sizzle scale. Work your way past a very warm and smoky chipotle sauce (a No. 8) and who knows, you might be ready for the salsa fan's rite of passage: an uncut green habanero salsa that could be endorsed by Satan. It's ***-hot! - like none you've ever sampled, so keep liquids and plain tortillas close at hand in a feeble effort to dull the searing, sweat-provoking impact.
