A quick and delicious lunch at this restaurant.
The light blue bike with flowers out front is cute. The interior decor is bit gaudy for my taste, but the pitas: Sultan and Falafel are great. The portion is large but we managed to finish even the additive French fries.

After lunch next door, we wandered in.
An interesting store, with rocks and more rocks. Some are really beautiful, like the chrysanthemum stones.
Two young kids are manning the shop – wondering they buy the stones or go out there find themselves, or both.

Supermarkets and stores sells beers in Utah, not wine. For wine and whiskey, state store is the place one goes to.
This one is next door to Fiesta Mexicana: average, sells what we need, period.

A charming restaurant, with bold paintings and cute items.
1. The red wine is served in a Porto glass
2. They like to jam dinners
Our group of 17, is seated by the door on a Monday, in two tables. By the time we left at 7:30pm, it’s still very empty.
Food is pretty delicious. My beef is tender but I did add salt (I love salt) and the bean is flavorful.
The churros – I just had a wonderful churros in Salt Lake City yesterday – light, alive and fluffy , so I think I’m fairly fresh in judging – this one is not even close, dead.

Will return bec of the hotel.
Dark, booths and tables, and a welcoming fire place.
We’ve breakfast here: average and decent, fruit yogurt side and bacon sausage on the other side of the omelette station.
I asked for two sunny side. The lady had to ask her colleague, who cooked and then flipped my two lovely eggs. Must be my Chinglish at work. I ate them – too cheap to waste.
The young female server doesn’t know if they’ve green tea.
“What kind of tea do you have?”
“Black…”
“Ok”
Then she came with green tea -:) thank you. It tastes fruity.

It’s 4pm, after speeding long hours at the family search library, we’re hungry and this restaurant opens at 4.
No one is manning the restaurant. We waited then just sat down at a table. On my way to the bathroom at the back, one girl curled up in the last booth, playing with her phone, and one girl talking on the phone in the bathroom.
Dirty plates. I used the paper towel from the bathroom, wet with water to clean it.
We’ve
Mongolian pork: good, except needs more cutting of the meat and fat green onion/scallion.
Black pepper tofu: very good. The onion and bell pepper make the dish bit too sweet for me, either one with celery will taste less sweet.

A little hideaway gem.
A local friend took us there. It was a reunion of four boat mates in 2022, with the fourth mate came in from New York. The weather was so cooperating, after raining yesterday and much of today, we actually went into the restaurant under the blue skies.
This Spanish tapa place is homey and small, with outdoor tables, in a lovely neighborhood, by owner Owner Scott Evans.
We’ve warm olives, two salads and the shrimp: all are really good. And the churros are to die for: light and fluffy!
After dinner, our friend drove us around the neighborhood: thank you so much!

This is the first time ever, a flea market charges a fee to ‘enter’.
After the Planetarium, we wandered over to Rio Grande Street to the left, and the flea market.
My goodness … the items there don’t look appetizing, old and shapeless. Oh well. Maybe I’m missing the point – they’ve a specific reason to charge the $3.
From Asher Adams (@ 2 S 400 W), we visit the Union Pacific Depot.

Went in due to rain. It’s more like an arcade. Three levels are filled with kids, teens and families, as one would expect.
The planetarium is free, $10 for the Dome Theater.
Both elevators don’t work.

We passed by it, drew in by their New Yorker magazine covers on the wall.
High ceiling. Relaxing atmosphere. Youthful vibe. Art decor. Pets. All glasses front that looks out to Grand America hotel. Bookshelf filled with aging books and items. Sofa seating as well as regular ones.
Pastries look very chubby – don’t think I can finish one -:) My wrap is delicious and huge. Despite done 800 yard in the pool, I forced myself to finish the second half, the last few bits were forced down with little help from Tabasco. Becky is delicious too, especially appreciate the crispy edges of the English muffin.
How do they curve the radish? The grey earthy coffee cups are cute, so are the Barn style lights.
The newspapers adds to the decor but are old: Village Voice (May 1) and the New York Times (2024!).
Thank you for brightening this rainy Sunday for us!
