New Summer Dishes at Rodizio
Rodizio Brazilian Grill has added some tempting new grilling season menu items in addition to the regular churrasco smorgasbord, available throughout the month of July at no extra charge.
According to the folks at Rodizio, new summer dishes include:
Pescado with Passion Fruit Sauce: Flavorful and flaky white fish, cooked to perfection paired with a creamy, homemade passion fruit sauce for a savory-sweet balance.
Beef Brisket: Slow-roasted, fork-tender and dripping with melt-in-your-mouth flavor.
Lemongrass Mango Soup: Chilled mango soup with lemon grass tea, mango puree, ginger, yogurt, and chunks of coconut.
BBQ Chicken Salad: Fresh tossed romaine lettuce topped with sweet baked BBQ chicken and homemade Malagueta BBQ ranch dressing.
Pie and Beer Day at Beer Bar
As most of you know, Pioneer Day is a Utah state holiday which celebrates Brigham Young’s arrival – along with other Mormon settlers – to the Salt Lake Valley in 1847.
But a few years ago someone – I’m not sure who thunk up the original idea – created an alternative Pioneer Day holiday for non-Mormons: Pie and Beer Day. It’s a day chock full of homemade pies and craft brews.
There are various Pie and Beer Day celebrations in Utah, but in my opinion the best one is the Official Pie and Beer Day at Beer Bar in downtown SLC. This year, on Monday, July 24, 2023, from noon to 4 p.m. Beer Bar will host Pie and Beer Day with 25 breweries, 25 kitchens, and over 10,000 slices of pie.
Pie and Beer Day at Beer Bar is a benefit event for the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah. Tickets are $40 per person (21 and over) and includes 6 pairings.
