Chorizo Nachos at the Cup Cafe: Arizona
Stellar nachos abound in Tucson, but those craving an atmospheric dose of history with their meal should head downtown to the Hotel Congress. Dating from 1919, the property is home to the Cup Cafe, where the comforting bar menu illuminates Picacho Nachos. Layered with Jack cheese, bean dip, chili con queso, pepper, onion, tomato and salsa, these nachos can — and should — be ordered with the optional local-chorizo splurge.
