Every issue we find ourselves seeking out five fun twists on a dish made at different local establishments. For this current issue we sought out a favorite shareable with friends and family: nachos! Find out the fun versions around Park City and share some on your next night out.
Sweet Potato Nachos
Find it: Crystal Park Cantina
The Twist: Sweet potato fries are loaded with organic chorizo, cheese, caramelized onions, fresh pico de gallo and a pepper sauce.
Why We Love Them: Feel good about yourself since sweet potatoes have a ton of antioxidants. The sweet and spicy combination is a winner, and every bite is loaded with chorizo.
Tokyo Nachos
Find it: Flying Sumo Sushi
The Twist: Gyoza chips are topped with spicy tuna tartare, tobiko, green onions, wasabi mayo, guacamole and sesame seeds.
Why We Love Them: Have sushi and nachos at the same time. The large portions are designed to be shared, and most people who dine at Flying Sumo start with an order.
Lobster Nachos
Find it: Butcher’s Chop House & Bar
The Twist: A house-made pepper jack cheese sauce is topped with lump lobster meat, jalapeños, cilantro and a sprinkle of cotija cheese.
Why We Love Them: The house-made corn tortilla chips stay crisp, and the dish is a nod to the Mexican staff who man the kitchen. Lobster meat and the simplicity of the nachos elevate the appetizer to pair with the steakhouse menu at Butcher’s.
Tatchos
Find it: Drafts Burger Bar
The Twist: Tater Tots are smothered with a smoked gouda cheese sauce, bacon, tomatoes, green onions and sour cream. You can add bison, beef chili or shredded pork, too.
Why We Love Them: This dish is so popular with guests it is served at every Westgate hotel in the country. Join the 50 plus others who share this for après-ski on a busy winter day.
Goochy Scoops
Find it: Goochy Goo BBQ
The Twist: Frito scoops are topped with queso; baked beans; your choice of pulled pork, chicken, brisket or andouille sausage; more cheese; green onions; bacon; spicy barbecue sauce; barbecue ranch; and pepperoncini. You can add sour cream and pickled jalapeños, too.
Why We Love Them: The meat is perfectly smoked, and the pepperoncini offer the right amount of tang to enhance the sauces.
