The Chimi Project: Su Casa Mexican Restaurant

Su Casa is a small Mexican restaurant in downtown Salt Lake City. I was recently reading the editor's monthly message in a local Utah business magazine and he was drawing a comparison between chimichangas and advertising. I won't go into the details, but...

...he did provide a list his favorite places to get a chimichanga. My brother, being a chimichanga lover, immediately wanted the complete list of restaurants when I mentioned the article to him. Today was our visit to the first of those on the list (look for others in the future).

Su Casa is the favorite restaurant for a chimichanga for the guy writing the article. For my brother and me it is a Mexican place close to work that neither of us has been to before. He ordered the chicken chimichanga and I had the chile relleno.

Impressions after the first visit: Su Casa gets high marks for interior decor and ambiance, very clean, great service, and a menu that wasn't too complex. The food itself was served quickly and as ordered, but didn't knock our socks off. We both agreed it was solid and worth eating at again, although my brother said if he was to return he would get something different next time in place of the chimichanga.

Coming up on the list of places to visit are: Cafe Pierpont, Bajio Mexican Grill, Baja Cantina, and Gecko's Mexican Grill and any other place we can find that purports to have a good chimi.

Be sure to check out the chimis at Bajio Mexican Grill . They are the best! You will not be disappointed. Crispy and made to order - oh so good....
