Oasis Cafe
Oasis Cafe’s Chef de Cuisine Efren Benitez, has created special weekly three-course meals for January “resolution dining.” Priced at just $25 and changing weekly to take opportunity of the freshest ingredients, the nightly dinner special includes a nourishing choice of soup or salad and changing entree and dessert options.
Benitez likes offering fresh fish and vegetables this time of year, when most people are cutting back on calories and fat after the holiday excess. “We are trying to help our diners eat more responsibly in 2014,” said Will Keesen, general manager. “Chef Benitez and his culinary team take pride in hand-crafting every item using the freshest ingredients possible, wanting guests to feel full, but also refreshed.”

Pan Roasted Salmon over a Green Curry Orzo with Coconut Milk and Orange Caramelized Carrots, and Lemon Cheesecake for Dessert

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”.
