OFF THE EATEN PATH: Authentic Thai Cuisine in Sunset

November 30, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

The Davis County enclave of Sunset, Utah isn’t well known for its adventurous dining options. But I recently happened upon a terrific little hole-in-the-wall Thai cafe called Ros Ni Yuhm Thai Restaurant. For the past few months, Ros Ni Yuhm has occupied the space that was previously home to a good Vietnamese eatery called Saigon Cafe Vietnamese Noodle House. I always like … [Read more...]

Economic Fascism in Utah?

November 28, 2018 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

The Medical Cannabis Compromise legislation is nothing short of economic fascism. When the government wants to control an entire sector of the economy, as the Utah State Legislature is attempting to do — there is a term for this which is much more serious that “cronyism”. The church leadership through the state is working to create nothing short of a fascistic monopoly. The … [Read more...]

Paizlee’s Grass-Fed Beef

November 28, 2018 by Alyssa Bray Leave a Comment

I can remember the moment that I first tasted a real hamburger. I was staying with family in rural Utah. Dinner featured homemade hamburgers prepared with beef from a locally raised, grass-fed cow. I remember the complexity of flavor being so unique that I had asked how the meat had been seasoned. “It wasn’t,” was the answer. “It’s just the beef.” I was amazed. Until that … [Read more...]

To save this unique suckerfish and its extremely … [Read more...]

My Personal Renaissance at the Utah Renaissance Faire

November 25, 2018 by Alyssa Bray Leave a Comment

I vividly remember the day I realized that people in costume make me uncomfortable. It was Halloween in High School and a friend of mine had dressed up so thoroughly, that he had obscured his identity. Even though I knew it was him, I couldn't visually recognize him underneath the costume. It disturbed me, deeply. As irony would have it, I have spent the last three summers … [Read more...]

A Colony of Utah Vikings Reenact Norse History

November 25, 2018 by Stacy Russon Leave a Comment

When I was a little girl, I pretended to be on some exciting adventure. I pretended to be a warrior-princess or an Indiana Jones figure. I played with swords, bows and arrows, and I rode horses in the wilderness without the supervision of adults. My childhood interests followed me into adulthood. I became very interested in world history and family history. About five years … [Read more...]
