Restaurant Review: Piper Down – Utah

piper down

Friday night + Irish food + friends = great time. Great meat lover options, but what else would you expect from an Irish Pub?! For veggies option, order burger with garden burger pattie and salad as side instead of french fries for healthy option. Servers do great job on busy Friday Night. Not the best place for vegan options, but at least they have some ways to customize dishes. Piper Down is known for their fish and chips, but the Reuben potato skins were the best! Great spot for date night and group parties, if you like loud bar scene.

Restaurant Review: Taco Janes – California

taco-janes-san-anselmoTaco Janes in San Anselmo!

I’ve heard great things about Taco Janes in San Anselmo for years, so I was pleased to join my mom her long time BFFs for dinner. While the menu sports plenty of meat lover Mexican dishes, I was delighted to find several veggie based dishes too. I enjoyed the veggie burrito (with optional wheat tortilla). Easy to request no cheese or sour cream for vegan dish. chips and salsa was rockin’ good! Other ladies really enjoyed the salmon on salad and fish tacos. Looked great! This is a great place for family dinner, date night, gathering of friends. If you have opportunity to meet the restaurant owner Matthew, take the chance to ask him about his photography on the walls – he has an eye for capturing Cuban culture in photography.

Restaurant Review: Shin Sei – Utah

shin-sei-ogdenLunch at Shin Sei in Ogden.

Looking for lunch spot in historic Ogden, check out this great Japanese joint. Wonderful vegan and meat lover options. Sushi was veggie. Can’t believe it’s not a volcano, spicy salmon. Check out their $2 Tuesday specials too. The mussel shooters were great!

Restaurant Review: Guru’s Cafe – Utah

gurusWarm weather + outdoor seating + healthy food = great dinner out. Chipotle chicken wrap, Asian salad with tofu, sweet potato fries and spiced hummus with pita and chips. Mmmmm… thank you! Great spot for casual dates, business meetings, and large family parties. Always something for everyone in the crowd.
