    The missus ate there and told me I'd love it. Big portions and good food.

      • Any of you had the Sweet Chili Shrimp Nachos at The Harvest restaurant at Thanksgiving point?

        We went there for dinner with someone over the holidays, and my wife decided she needs to re-create these things to share at the Super Bowl watch party. Nothing to do with Philly or KC, but they are delicious, so I won't protest.

        The online menu describes them as: tortilla crisps, queso fresco, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sweet chili sauce. Sounds pretty straight forward. I'm just trying to remember whether they are corn tortilla crisps, or flour. Anyone know?

          Yes and definitely flour.

          EDIT: I think they also garnish with scallions or green onions because as someone stated somewhere else, you ain’t legit unless you have some green on top.

            Thank you! I'll have to think about the green onions - my wife would probably like cilantro better, but one of the people we'll be with has that weird thing that makes cilantro taste like soap. Either way - there will definitely be some green on top in the form of guac.

            • I liked the Navajo Taco at Bkack Sheep.

              My wife claimed she liked the baked macaroni and cheese from Mozz. She did not like the Turkey and avocado BLT from Guru's. And she refused to try the Bkack Sheep Salad with chicken because I didn't think to have them hold the red onions.

                  I always get the Navajo Taco there, mostly because Navajo tacos take me back to my days at the Cougar Eat, when their Navajo taco was pretty much my go-to meal. It's nostalgic for me because those were the days when the Cougar Eat was a cafeteria, with trays, and lines and no kiosks. And we like it that way!

                    That's how it was my first semester. When I returned from my mission trip, it was under construction.

                      We are close to the same age. It was there my first semester as well, and when I got back I think some of the new places were open but the Wilk was mostly under construction.

                      I only ate there once or twice before my mission because I was on the meal plan in Deseret towers. Taco Bell was a regular for me after my mission because of the quantity of the food at a low price.

                        90-93 the Navajo was my go-to "luxury" meal. The days I wasn't eating ramen or PB&J, I would get .29 cent tacos from some place off of State St (pretty close to where Chik-Fil-A is now) "Nogales"??? It was a small soft shell taco, with a tiny beat of meat and lots of lettuce. 3 tacos and refill of my Maverik mug, got me through a lot of study sessions.

                          Naugales was basically Del Taco before Del Taco. My dad loved that place. I have fond memories of going through the Naugales drive thru in Roy in the back seat of our black Cutlass Supreme.

                            i had a buddy who worked there, so we'd get free food all the time. it was Naugles, and it actually merged with Del Taco which is why we don't see them anymore.

                              When I was working in Spanish Fork, I ate at the Del Taco in Springville during it's Grand Opening. Some executive was there and we got on the subject of Naugles or something and he told me that Taco Bell, Del Taco and Naugles all have a shared history. Taco Bell was the first, but the creator of Taco Bell helped the guy who made Del Taco. And then Naugles was made by one of the Del Taco partners.

                              I can't stomach Taco Bell anymore. As a kid, I loved their enchiladas.

                                Interesting. I didn't know the connection between Naugles and Del Taco
