Just a quick heads up about a new project I am contributing to – www.theutahreview.com. The Utah Review will be looking to cover the best and brightest of Utah. In addition to news and info on cool events in the arts and entertainment scene there will be even more delicious food info too. Take a look at this review of Kyoto Japanese Restaurant I recently wrote for The Utah Review.
If you have an interest in the Utah A&E scene or just want even more great food info – head on over there and subscribe to the site’s email list, which you will find on the top right of every page of the site.

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you! I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC; I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune. I’ve worked extensively with multiple local publications from Visit Salt Lake to Salt Lake Magazine, not least helped to consult on national TV shows.
I’m a multiple-award winning journalist and have covered the Utah dining scene for the better part of fifteen years. 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”. Want to know more? This is why I am the way I am.
