Batista Food & Grill · South Salt Lake
Batista Food & Grill brings Cuban and Nicaraguan family recipes to South Salt Lake. Its pressed Cuban sandwich layers marinated roast pork, ham, Swiss, pickles and house sauce on crisp bread, while empanadas, stews and rotating specials broaden the table. The family run dining room gives the compact State Street space the feel of a neighborhood kitchen.
Fillings & Emulsions 300 West · Ballpark
Fillings & Emulsions turns chef Adalberto Diaz's Cuban roots and French pastry training into guava pasteles, picadillo meat pies, café Cubano and meticulously finished cakes. The 300 West bakery pairs a large pastry case with savory bakes and coffee traditions Diaz learned from his grandmother. It works equally well for a quick cafecito, a Cuban breakfast ritual or a box of pastries.
