Featured post. A new aspect for the round-up is our featured post. Each round-up we will pick our favourite post; the featured post will be something that strikes a particular chord for us, whether that be the quality of the writing, the photos or a mix of both and more! Our first featured review is from the “A Couple Of Foodies” blog, where Bambara gets a trio of reviews for each of their services: dinner, lunch and breakfast. Bambara Dinner | Bambara lunch | Bambara breakfast.

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you! I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC. I’m a multiple-award winning journalist and have written in myopic detail about the Salt Lake City dining scene for the better part of seventeen years.
I’ve worked extensively with multiple local publications from Visit Salt Lake to Salt Lake Magazine, not least helped to consult on national TV. Pause those credits, yep, that’s me! I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune. I’m largely fueled by a critical obsession with rice, alliteration and the use of big words I don’t understand. What they’re saying about me: “Not inaccurate”, “I thought he was older”, “I don’t share his feelings”.
