While I am on the self-promotion kick, here’s some pertinent news (and another nagging reason to hit subscribe). This year we scooped up four awards across two regional journalism awards. Both the Utah Society of Professional Journalists awards and Top Of The Rockies – a multistate contest for the best regional journalism.
As ever, I’m as pleased as proverbial punch (that should be as pleased as finding myself with a gyro in each hand). Here are those four winning stories in case you missed their original posting:

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”.
