One of the most interesting new restaurants I’ve visited this year is called Niño Viejo, which is located at Farmington’s Station Park in the location that previously was home to the short-lived Tortilla Union. If my Spanish serves me, Niño Viejo translates as “old boy.”  The Niño Viejo website clarifies … sort of: “The Niño Viejo Story: Old Boy. Old Soul. Young at … [Read more...]

Mexican Cerveza for Cinco de Mayo

April 30, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

With Cinco de Mayo celebrations taking place next week, I thought I’d turn my attention this week to Mexican beer - the perfect accompaniment to Mexican foods.  One of my favorite Mexican brews is Bohemia, a German-style light lager launched in 1905. Bohemia comes in a fat little brown bottle with a gold label and is aged longer than most Mexican beers. It has a nice floral … [Read more...]

7 Healthy Dining Destinations

April 28, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

During the past year, wellness has been on our minds even more than normal. It’s been a challenge to stay safe and stay well, and many of us — I’ll speak for myself, anyway — have used lockdown as an excuse to, perhaps, eat a little less than healthily. Comfort foods have reigned in our kitchen, for example. But as we begin to finally come out of the pandemic, we should regain … [Read more...]

Burgess Owens is an anomaly in Congress, not only does he serve from one of the most white states in America, but he is a staunch Republican. Out of the 57 black congressional members, just two are Republicans. But this fact has not made Owens shy to speak his mind. Owens has been outspoken on many issues including slavery reparations and the border crisis. He recently said … [Read more...]

MORE SOY TO ENJOY: A Visit to Holladay’s Mint Tapas and Sushi

April 23, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

For a number of years now I’ve been following one of my favorite Utah chefs - Batsaikhan “Soy” Ariunbold around, as he moved from restaurant to restaurant. I first fell in love with his cuisine at Rice Basil in Holladay, before he opened his namesake restaurant, Soy’s Sushi Bar & Grill in Murray, and then Blue Marlin in Sandy, the name of which was changed last year to Mint … [Read more...]
