Salt Lake City: Home of the Utah Jazz & Flemming's Restaurant


Oh where do I start? Last Saturday night I dined with a medium sized party --for Graduation--at Flemming's (Fine Dining Restaurant) during which was the final play-off for round 1 of Jazz vs Rockets. Go Jazz.

We had a resesrvation at 8:30 for which ...

I have found probably the best, most delicious chinese food in the valley though. This place receives ...

Best Nickel Arcade in the Salt Lake Valley: Nickelmania


One of the best family-friendly outings in Salt Lake is to Nickelmania, located at 6051 South State Street. While it's one of many nickel arcades in the valley, it stands out for its working games, cleanliness, and especially its helpful, attentive staff. We love them!

Salt Lake City's Tastes of Mexico!


Located on 122 West Pierpont Avenue, Café Pierpont is fiery and delicious. Their massive margaritas brought tears of joy to my eyes. You can also order a burrito the size of your head and eat for a week! Seriously, this burrito feeds two for a very affordable price. The salsa bar is a spicy slice of heaven. So stop in for some delicious Mexican food in the heart of downtown.

What to do during a Salt Lake City inversion:

 

First, stay inside, if at all possible. This is the dirtiest our air has ever been. Sorry, ...
