I have long had a habit of ordering a breakfast sandwich at every brunch establishment I try. Many have disappointed, some have given me cause to recall the delight I had at first taste, and yet fewer still have caused me to return the next day. I have returned back to back here. The sausage breakfa...

Really good. They go well with breakfast. Exquisite.

They're always either too long for the dog so you get a bite of nasty ketchupy bread, or the dog hangs outta the bun all naked and nasty.

they get da job done

It takes forever to get to Cafe Bunn Mi. It’s not even within the borders of what is called “Utah.” It’s in this place that only exists when you go there, but I did go there so it existed for a short time. There was absolutely no parking in the area, which was totally fine because I took an Uber the...

Bread, Vegetables, and Pork
They looked at me and assumed I ordered my sandwich correctly (with jalapenos which then melted my face off)

Coworkers suggested this place on the guarantee that it would be the best Indian food I had ever tried. They claimed transcence from every morsel. It was quite clearly implied from their MS Teams messages that choosing Bombay House for a Coordinators get-together-and-gab would soften my heart from t...

Fancy pizza designed by a famous gastronomist. Definitely tasty but lacks the charm of a dingy hole in the wall pizza joint. They have this salad they call "potato chip salad" that's actually kinda not good in a very confusing way. Feels basically like an emperor has no clothes moment where the chef...

chrisjpatty

Tasty, but it is the functional equivalent of lighting off a mustard gas bomb in your esophagus. For hours you will breathe noxious clouds of onion thicker than the salt lake inversion. Your desperate swishes of mouth wash will be like spitting on a bonfire. Nothing short of a tracheotomy will end t...

Disgusting

Best grilled cheese I have ever eaten. The cheese: cheesy. The sourdough bread: sour. The fried tomatoes: perfection. The only thing that could make it better is a warm and creamy tomato basil soup. But they have that so perfection has actually been achieved. The only criticism I will allow is the...

I had it once, but I forgot how it tastes

chrisjpatty

I was primed not to like this grilled cheese since Rachael had hyped it so much but unfortunately it exceeded my already high expectations. Tragic I know but I think it just barely beats my formerly favorite grilled cheese from Eva’s Bakery.

Basically inedible. If RFK is wondering why they use corn syrup in American sodas it’s because all the sugar is going into this key lime pie. Taking a single bite gave me an instant headache. Fed the rest to the garbage.

jacobpatty

Incredible bland and uninspiring. The sort of food that prisoners would turn their nose up at. I finished it for the protein but it was unpleasant the entire time. I wish I could take back having ever bought it. I wish I could take back a lot of things… 2 stars.

Pretty good pizza, not as good as Center Street Pizza in Logan. They take great care to make sure their crust has a good crunch, but that means that the plate isn’t really a plate but more of a bumpy carrying tray as to make sure no moisture gets stuck in the crust. I got a gyro themed pizza which w...

jacobpatty

Good pizza. Their restaurant is too loud though, but what can you do. I guess what you could do though is enact some kind of system of walls made of that foam thats like all triangles, a bunch of gray and black foam triangles, that would quiet that place up real quick. But the problem with that is t...

chrisjpatty

Probably the best pizza in Salt Lake. Takes forever to get a table unless you plan ahead but generally worth the wait. They really could light this place up a little better. Sometimes it feels like you're eating pizza in a haunted house, but that's not necessarily a bad vibe.

chrisjpatty

Never had a bad time here. Great tacos, great guac. I once witnessed 6 birthday songs in a row here. That’s too many birthday celebrations in the course of 30 minutes but that’s not their fault. If anything it speaks to how good it is that people want to drag their friends and family there for the o...

jacobpatty

They are a good restaurant. I enjoy eating their food. When I go there, I usually have a good time. If I don’t have a good time, it’s rarely the restaurant’s fault, and more just something bad going on in my own life that is totally separate from them. I get the tacos. One time I got a quesadilla. T...

jacobpatty

Meh

chrisjpatty

I’ve occasionally gotten takeout from this place but never actually dined in. It was really well decorated and cozy inside and for how good the food is it’s really reasonably priced. I’m biased since I just spent two weeks in New York where the tip option on every register ipad defaults to “your spa...

chrisjpatty

Everyone told me this was the best coffee in Salt Lake so I went in with high expectations. That’s on me for thinking an 8oz mocha would blow my mind but it was really just fine nothing special. And let me warn you, their building kinda stinks. Like idk if there’s like a ventilation problem they’re...

jacobpatty

They’re fine i guess, but I’m never impressed by them. It’s like mashed potatoes in a fleshy gogurt tube with a flavor that is somehow both incredibly distinct and extraordinarily meh. I don’t want them to go extinct but if they did it wouldn’t ruin my day. If that happened I probably wouldn’t find...

God's pastry truly.

So I was given this cupcake at my basketball game because it was a teammates bday. I didn’t want it right away so I placed it in the cup holder. Then I went to Raising Canes for dinner, got my chicken and lemonade and made it home. I had quite a few things to carry out of the car so I balanced my cu...

Full-fat yogurt is a gift. The range she has!! Sour is criminally underused in American cuisine, and a dollop of full-fat dairy can elevate even the most basic soups and dips to the sublime. Equally adept in both sweet and savory contexts, I could not and would not cook without full-fat yogurt. Thin...

Just plain yogurt? More like just plain awful. Only edible if you do a bunch of extra work that Fage refused to do, like adding berries and jam or crumbling up cookies with chocolate chips to mix in. honestly tho you could do without the yogurt friend and just have a chocolate chip cookie as god int...

Some people drink black coffee, I eat plain greek yogurt. You can dress it up with a little avocado oil, vanilla extract, and a few pieces of fresh or freeze dried fruit. The real secret is that this yogurt tastes the same as sour cream, but you can get away with eating it because yogurt is socially...

They poisoned me. Not a bad burger really but unfortunately I was poisoned by them.

jacobpatty

Really good, the regular glazed donut was warm and delicious, it’s everything you would want a donut shop to be. Thought about giving it 4 and a half stars but I thought, what, am I waiting for God’s donut?

chrisjpatty

These are the absolute perfect drunk food. Stumbling in at 2:00 am and need something starchy to soak up the booze? Boom, 7 minutes later and you’ve got yourself a meal. I pair it with the”Fly By Jing” Sichuan Chili Crisp for a little extra flavor and spice. Trader Joe knows how to prevent a hangove...

Tasty with meatballs, and fried onions and peppers

rebeccapatty

I’m always getting a little snacky around Christopher’s apartment, and he always says, “Why don’t you have some Trader Joe’s Squiggly Noodles with Soy & Sesame Sauce?” And listen, the taste is fine but it’s all starch, no substance. I could see this being the base of a dish but it at least needs som...

Really turns down a cold/flu/covid by like 40%.

chrisjpatty

I have so far never been let down by this place. Everything on the menu tastes very fresh and it’s tucked away nicely in the avenues. It can be hard to get a table without a reservation and it’s a bit on the pricier side, but portions are large so I usually end up just splitting a few large starters...

chrisjpatty

This might be my favorite burger place in all of Salt Lake. Are the floors oddly sticky and the benches graffitied? Yes. Will it take 30 minutes minimum to get your order and in the meantime will you be harassed by any number of marauding local youths? Yes and yes. Despite its flaws if you threw one...

On 3 very separate occasions I have attempted to go to California burger, one of which I convinced my coworkers it would better than crown burger, only to find them closed. While they keep odd hours to begin with, they seem to be randomly closed. Why do they make it so difficult?

jacobpatty

Good

rebeccapatty

Really a great burger, but it's true. You're either going to have to do calculus to decide if they'll be open when you arrive, or go off the vibe that they'll probably be closed when you think it's a normal time to get burger. You can tell that they don't really want you to come visit their restaura...

chrisjpatty

I was pretty surprised how bad this place was. The food was expensive and it had the vibe of a casual upscale brunch house, but every dish can only be described as entirely flavorless. Like in an almost impressive way. Most restaurants that I don’t like I don’t know exactly how to make the food bett...

chrisjpatty

Not bad

jacobpatty

It’s lite but filling with 43 grams of protein, tastes good enough, an all around good buy. Was slightly annoyed though that apparently the city creek chick fil a no longer has a curbside pickup in the parking garage. I had to get out in my slippers, and i also wasnt wearing a belt, and go up the el...

Sloppy wet bread, a nice hot dough to mush against the roof of your mouth, though ultimately unsatisfying. Won't be having again.

rachaelpatty

Albanese has got it figured out. I’ve always enjoyed their other products, however the sour gummi bears are a whirlwind of flavor. Each little bear is coated in a delightfully sour substance that hits the tongue with a shock. And once you bite into one, the sour just keeps going, aided by various wa...

The morning sludge is the perfect breakfast and has been for the last three years. It's chocolate-macadamia nut, which is surprisingly much better than the typical chocolate-peanut butter you find in most protein supplement meals. It's mostly fat and protein, so it's definitely best enjoyed as a sip...

Never personally tried it but I don’t see why that should matter.

Watching Rebecca consume this bog water has made me physically ill on multiple occasions.

This place used to low-key kinda suck. It was crazy expensive and had mediocre food. But about a year ago they changed their menu up and dropped a lot of the prices and now it's one of my regular haunts. The food is pretty good now but they still have a really confusing setup inside where one half...

rebeccapatty

We got seated in this side room and apparently they’ll only feed you certain meals depending on where you sit. I was sitting in direct sunlight and could hardly see anything. The breakfast sandwich I got was delicious but it was also the spiciest food to be eating while absolutely baking in the hot...

chrisjpatty

An absolutely perverted candy. Each one comes with a dry and chewy outer casing that is edible but can be peeled back to reveal a solid sticky mass on the inside. Sort of like if a candy was designed by H. R. Giger. Can't believe it made it out of committee. Loved every second of it.

jacobpatty

It’s fine but not amazing

Dry as hell

They had an odd bbq flavor i didn't like, but the texture was great, just the perfect amount of thickness.

I really wanted to like these but they were waaaaaay too thick. Kind of like eating a BBQ cracker. Tasty though. Put this flavor on a better potato and you got an A+ chip but alas.

Great little spot two blocks from my house. Can't get food this cheap and good in DC, gotta go out to Virginia

I ate here with my coworkers so I’m biased by the fact that it was free, however, this was the best bowl of ramen I have ever had my god. The pig in my soup should feel HONORED to have been served to me enrobed as he was. I unfortunately must knock off a star from an otherwise 5 star experience for...

Ragtrader is a bar in Midtown. Pretty good drinks but pricey, and they seemed to make them a bit too fast. You know how when something good gets made a little too quickly and you're left wondering, "What corners did you cut to do that without a couple extra minutes?" It was that sort of experience....

jacobpatty

Boy does it satisfy.

grantpatty

Five stars if you have good aquifer water, but if you live in a city apartment with bad water it's not good at all (and never gets cold)

chrisjpatty

I prefer cold water from a stale brita pitcher whose filter hasn’t been changed since 2015 and almost certainly harbors various strains of ecoli. But nevertheless it is quite tasty.

jacobpatty

Gym was giving out samples. You can imagine my excitement. I love snickers bars, i love protein, I like things that are free. Tasted terrible, like sandy taffy, like someone dropped their gum in the dirt and packaged it. I was unimpressed.

Delicious.

Wow. Only 5 things on the menu. No decisions to make, just one incredible cheeseburger. The sauce was mostly pickles and I never knew that was something I wanted. Like if you blended up another cheeseburger and added mayo to turn it into a spread. I feel sick already from how heavy it was but all I...
