The Unintended Consequences of Utah’s Tech Boom

June 29, 2021 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Utah's tech boom has been incredible. There are more tech jobs in Utah per capita than any other state in the country, and our tech economy keeps growing.

June 25, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

I have to admit that when restaurant One-0-Eight opened in the space that was formerly occupied by Sea Salt in SLC, I was puzzled by the name. Was the street address 108? Nope, the address is 1709 E. 1300 S. Ultimately, I learned that 108 is the last three digits of the Yalecrest neighborhood zip code where One-0-Eight is located: 84108. First opened by Chef/Owner James Dumas … [Read more...]

Vindaloo-Spiced Grilled Steak

June 24, 2021 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Utah’s Disappearing Farms

June 23, 2021 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Utah's farmers markets are booming, the local food movement is stronger than ever, and local farmers-market farmers are making record profits ― so why are we building over the top of the best remaining farmland in Utah? The simple answer is that the land, in the eyes of our political leaders and developers, has far more economic value as homes and apartments than as farms. … [Read more...]
