Los 2 Potrillos
Sometimes the best restaurants are found in the most unexpected places. Were it not for the recommendation of some friends, we might not have ever stumbled across Los 2 Potrillos in Spanish Fork — even though it is impossible to miss on State Street with its neon yellow paint job. We especially enjoyed the complimentary chips, the Beef Fajitas and the Super Nachos. The guacamole, thick and hearty, was also some of the best we have tasted. The restaurant appears to be well known by locals, though, as there were several families with children in baseball uniforms on a recent Saturday afternoon visit, and a packed dining room of patrons later that same night. Los 2 Potrillos features all the typical Mexican offerings and also includes a varied seafood menu as well.

Chill Yogurt & Cafe
There are numerous panini options at new sandwich shop Chill Yogurt & Cafe, but meat lovers will be immediately drawn to The “Dave” Special, a rugged manwich that improves on the basic concept of a good old ham-n-cheese (two kinds, cheddar and provolone), by adding a grilled bratwurst and bistro sauce. We also tried a Cafe Club Panini, which combines ham, turkey and bacon with lettuce, tomato, provolone cheese and ranch dressing. Most of the paninis at Chill are made using nicely crusty Ciabatta buns that hold their shape and texture well. Chill also offers a soup of the day, several salads (including an excellent Cajun Chicken Salad), and a variety of deserts, including fro-yo, of course. Don’t let the fountain drinks distract you from the Italian sodas. Fountain drink, schmountain drink.
