- Cafe Rio, as mentioned previously, was hit twice. Both times got a veggie salad. First time I ordered extra cilantro but got roots with it. Not a good idea, so went with a normal amount second time around. Nothing beats tearing off a piece of tortilla and dipping it in creamy tomatillo ranch dressing.
- Guru was a new place I tried. It's on center street in Provo, so tucked in a quaint little shopping area. There weren't many good sounding veggie options (I'm a vegetarian who hates most tofu), so I got the least offensive one. It wasn't that good, but other people's entrees looked good. But if you go there, you HAVE to get the sweet potato fries. Probably the best I've had.
- I also tried Zupas, which was highly recommended by most. The food was good, the people who worked there could have passed for the missing link. Not in looks (let's be honest, no one in Utah would leave their house without a perfect hair tousle and face painted with makeup), but in brains. "What did you order?" the lady at the register asked me. "The bbq salad," I answered. "What did you order?" she asked again, and this conversation continued a few more times before she exclaimed, "Oh! The bbq salad!" what?
- For a delicious round of sushi the Happy Sumo is probably the best place to go in the greater Salt Lake City area. I'm pretty biased toward LA sushi joints, but this place offers more than various takes on the California Roll. Their eel sauce is a little less eely than normal though.
Not as many restaurants were visited as planned, but that just leaves more for next time. Like a delicious enormous milkshake at Iceburg.
