My favorites

Food, coffee, cocktails
I love this hole in the wall and I eat here every time I’m in SLC. Food is amazing, inexpensive & staff is awesome. There is a fun bar across the street called Campfire Lounge If you like a beverage before or after dinner.

This coffee house is about two miles from the house in the 9th&9th district. It’s hands down my favorite coffee shop in all of SLC. The neighborhood is amazing to walk around for shopping and food as well.

My new-found favorite Thai hole-in-the-wall. I pickup takeout but you can dine in. Ambiance doesn’t do it for me but the food sure does. Generous portions and the flavors are always insane.

Food scene

They’re food is delicious and the spot is hip. It’s a bit small so get there before the dinner rush. They have gluten free pizza! Outdoor seating if it’s not freezing out.

My favorite neighbor in SLC. It’s two miles or less from the house. Coolest, hippest hood in SLC - shopping, eating, cocktails, coffee, historic Tower Theater for a movie, and Liberty Park (it’s awesome!!).

Free ranging bison, surrounded by the Great Salt Lake, perfect trails with insane views for hiking/mountain biking/trail running, or just an amazing place to go for a drive... It’s 45 minutes north from the house by car. Go for sunset. In late summer there can be no-see-ems at certain time of day so beware— but most of the year it’s not an issue.
