Might be in Park City in a few weeks and I'm usually the good time truffle pig. What's good eats these days in town?

[Phall]

I’ll let other mags chime in on eats, but if you like beer, offset is the spot.

Anyone else going to see Future Islands 5/16? We are really looking forward to it, it’s going to be our first date without the baby since the end of October! So stoked.

BMills, if you want to get a drink while you’re in town I would be happy to buy you a glass of brown water. I have some questions about Atlanta.

Not sure what happened to Slackwater Sandy but service has gone seriously downhill. Took 15 minutes for the waitress to even say anything to us. Then another 15 minutes for two beers. Place is maybe half full at best.

Bummer, I dig the option of making the pizzas a calzone, especially with the hotter marinara sauce they’ve concocted. And the beer selection, normally I can find at least one beer I haven’t had. Today was rather disappointing, after 2 mediocre experiences in the last 4 months or so.

Ticked off two new to me places today. Stun cube for lunch. Bulgogi beef cube, Korean sides, really dang good, but for the “cube” and an extra, small portion of Kimchi, after tip, was $27.00, so a little steep.
Dinner was shanasheel grill for schwarma. Grape leaves were great, schwarma was pretty good, need to do a schwarma tour to determine which is best, but I think Mazza has em beat.

Shawarma tour sounds like a good idea.

In case you aren't following phokingslc on IG, he is eating at all the pho places in the valley. La cai and oh Mai are some one of the worst places for Pho in his opinion, which I find hilarious. I liked the pho at both places, and a vietnamese friend likes going to both places too and recommends them. But hell yeah, lets figure out better places! Why not.

For my own reference to come back to here instead of his reviews scattered over many IG posts, heres some of his top places.

Pho 33 -order #34
Pho Hong Chau -get the tai cut, also the tho malony noodle soup is good
Rollz -anything with the flank
Pho Cali -inconsistent but great when it's great. also get the bun thit nuong cha gio as a side
Fat Fish
Pho 777 -uses oxtail in their broth, which is his favorite
The Pearl - available only on Sundays, get the barbacoa or pork
Pho Thin -expensive but good


Kin Sen recently re-opened really close my house, I tried some of the wife's pho and it was great. Phoking thinks its too sweet but gives them props for trying pho with a twist. I and the Phoking strongly recommend the House boat beef noodle. I'll still get the pho occassionally.

[Dantheman]

I am still so mad that Pho 33 moved to South Salt Lake. Between that and Saigon Sandwich closing I never get pho anymore.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a bread bakery? Everything seems to be pastries. Ideally in SLC or further south - I live in Sandy. Really nice, crusty bread. I want it for sandwiches, soups, etc.

[Supermoon]

Great Harvest?

[EWG]

From this time around:

Gourmandise - holy crap. Place is amazing.

Sawadee - Was good but everything was too sweet for me.

Betos - eh. Why bother.

Pho Thin - quite good.

Indochine - I continue to really like this place.

[zion zig zag]

Betos - eh. Why bother.

Because you’re drunk and the drive through is open at 1 am. Duh.

According to their website Lone Pine Bakery is now making sourdough bread. I haven’t had it yet, but if it’s like everything else they make it’ll be tasty. They make the best croissants in town

Lone Pine is owned by a long time Snowbird skier.

my SO has dipped hard into sourdough baking and routinely sells to her clients and friends. PM if you wanna grab some.

I went on a bread quest recently and found for convenience and taste that Harmons makes a pretty damn good sourdough and my go-to is the Country french loaf, both have great crusts too. Ask for the sandwich loaf if they have it as the other traditional shapes fall apart in sandwiches. I also tried V+R which is great, Vosen (not impressed with the rolls and bread but everything else was good), Stone Ground (they sell very little to the public, it's mainly all for restaurants or grocery stores) and Delice has a small but good selection of french to-go loafs or baugettes, but they are mainly a cafe/pastry shop.

Also, table X has a bakery, that sourdough is really good and I believe you can get it at caputos. central 9th market makes banging focaccia, or, if you have a little free time, making really good sourdough is quite easy. A little time consuming but once you’ve got the program dialed, and scheduled around your day, it’s really easy.

I've looked a few times and they don't carry it at Caputos anymore. They have been carrying another brand I can't remember, I think they have been rotating brands or searching for the right one to carry. I agree on Central 9th focaccia but I think it's blasphemous to take some home and think you can make a better sandwich with it though than they do, ha.

[ghosthop]

Fucking central 9th and their sound system. We love the sandwiches but I purposely speak at a whisper when I go in there. For sure the whitest kids I know.

We do tablex bread at our house when that’s what we want but it is expensive. I would second learning to bake your own. If you like gear sports, learning to bake is for you.

For $3, you cannot beat the Harmons baguette.

You bet, I’ll post up when my plans are firm. I’m not driving the bus on this trip so I’m hoping to have a bit of free time.

Red Bicycle for the stick bread and Hawk & Sparrow for anything crusty. I’m up in park city though.

because it's 7 am and I'm on my way to work, starving and I forgot to pack a lunch. Those breakfast burritos are huge.

And when you’re rolling to work hungover as a motherfucker- that breakfast burrito is a gift from the gods.
