💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting Chunga's in Salt Lake City, aim for weekdays around lunchtime or early evenings to avoid crowds and enjoy a more relaxed dining experience. Dress casually, as the atmosphere is laid-back; comfortable clothing and shoes are ideal. Don't miss the chance to try their signature tacos and salsas, which are local favorites! For photo opportunities, capture the vibrant interior and colorful dishes, especially during happy hour when the ambiance is lively. Be mindful of local customs; tipping around 15-20% is appreciated, and it’s courteous to greet staff in Spanish with a simple "Hola." Lastly, keep safety in mind by securing personal belongings, especially in busy areas, and be aware of your surroundings while exploring the neighborhood before or after your meal.
