In the Salt Lake Magazine Lydia Martinez waxes lyrical about Felt’s unique bone marrow dish – one I also fell head over marrow in love with when I first stopped by; read about that in this story from last Spring. Martinez also runs the ryle over a duo of spicy dishes and looks at a trio of long-lived classics. Meanwhile Avrey Evans takes a look at Bar A Vin (SLC), and Greg Brinkman runs the rule over some of the best fish & chips in town.
Ted Scheffler in Utah Stories writes about Matteo (Downtown SLC) after their recent move to the city, as well as Kuchu Shabu (Sugar House). Erin Dixon also checks out House Of Corn (Downtonw SLC).
In the City Weekly, Alex Springer has an eclectic quintet. MOOYAH (Sandy), Zhu Ting Ji (Taylorsville), West Valley Carnitas (WVC), Bobby’s Burgers (Orem), and Bhansa Ghar (SLC) are all featured. Yet another reminder from me that Bhansa Ghar is one of the very best South Asian businesses in town.
Rouding things out, Les Roka of our sister publication The Utah Review, talks about the Pho King film (remember this deep dive into the local pho scene?), Katie Hatzfeld of the Park Record writes about the opening of Le Depot (Park City), and Meg Walter in the Deseret News talks about the best chips and salsa in town.

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”.
