Some of my favorite restaurants are the less-well-known ones: the El Salvadorean restaurant at 350 W Center in Provo, La Carreta on State Street in Orem, Diego's on University, and the Thai restaurants. Provo has awesome cuisine if you look for it. Great post Trent, and I agree.

You could get 16 spicy pork tacos at Guanajuato for the same price as two burritos at Crapy Rio. It's is to bad the only take cash thought!

There are way too many killer restaurants that don't get traffic because they're not <em>cool</em>, and too many sucky restaurants that are constantly swamped. Rise above the marketing, people! I second the Mexican restaurant recommendation. I also want to chime in for the <a href="http://tinyurl.com/mpk8f" rel="nofollow">Bangkok Grill</a>. I highly recommend their curries, coconut soup, and mango rice. Service is super fast because there is rarely anyone there, and the food is insane. They have great lunch specials too, if you want to go sometime. :) That’s funny Trent, because I was thinking this same thing last night.

It fills the void left by Tacos Guanajuato. Here is a google map link: http://tinyurl.com/nhj2t Bring your cash and head-on to the back of the market. Oh yeah, you'll need to know Spanish and the water is bad. Can you say, "authentic"? I thought I fixed that…

The location in Provo is *ok* but lacks something. One thing is for sure, no trendy chicks with blond highlights could be found in the kitchen microwaving frozen burritos or pretending to be servers. That place had going on. My favorite touch was the sea-foam green paint on the walls and the calendar from 1990 with the Catholic Saint of choice on it. Sweet is the memory of Tacos al Pastor!
