Restaurant Review | Korea House

I’ll be honest: just thinking about my experience at Korea House, a local Korean cuisine eatery, is making me salivate. Faintly, I can feel the spicy barbecue that I had for lunch, and it’s making me hungry. Alas, at the late hour that I’m drafting this, and with the snow falling outside, it is unlikely that […]

Restaurant Review: Cafe Madrid

I know it’s been a while since I’ve put up one of these, and I really have no excuse. I’ve not stopped eating around at great restaurants…I’ve just been slack in telling you about them. That ends today. And for one good reason: I had a meal so incredibly AWESOME that to not say something […]

Bohemian Brewery & Grill: Sprechen ze Good Food?

If it were to be judged solely on the service, then Bohemian Brewery & Grill would earn a “Two Thumbs Up” and a Gold Star, too. Add food to the equation, and I doubt the score would change. Within seconds of walking into the Bohemian for the first time, I was greeted with a smile, […]

Rio Grande Cafe: The Right Place for Lunch

It is hard for me to criticize the Rio Grande Cafe. The place has great food, great atmosphere, and generally good service. It has become my “go to” when nothing else will fit the bill for lunch. During my most recent trip over to Rio Grande, we arrived a little after the noon hour, and […]

Ali Baba: it’s your fault if you leave hungry

Ali Baba shares a parking lot with a gas station across the street from a Salt Lake County Parks and Rec golf course. If you didn’t know it was there, I wonder if you’d notice it. I know I wouldn’t have. I’ve driven by dozens of times, even fueled up at the gas station, and […]

Himalayan Kitchen: a great find downtown

I think this must be one of the best places to eat near the Matheson Courthouse.  So I’m not sure how I’ve missed it before. There was a time when I could eat Indian food and find it completely to my satisfaction, no questions asked. However, that time has passed. I’ve enjoyed the Bombay House […]

Quick, but not fast food: Chipotle

Chances are, if we’ve had lunch together more than a couple times, then one of those times has been at Chipotle.  I’m a sucker for stuff wrapped in a tortilla, especially when that stuff has a good bit of rice, black beans, steak or chicken, pico de gallo, lettuce, and cheese. It’s fresh, it’s fast, […]
