Love is in the Air: A Visit to Osteria Amore

February 14, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Yes, love is in the air this week. But this is not another article about where to celebrate Valentine’s Day. I covered that in last week’s Utah Bites. Rather, this week I’m turning to a new restaurant that I’m really loving: Osteria Amore. In Italy, an osteria was traditionally an eatery serving simple, uncomplicated food and wine. Think of it as an Italian version of a … [Read more...]

Brews & Chews: 5 Can’t-Miss Restaurant Food and Beer Pairings

Don’t let the name - which is about as generic as it gets - fool you. There is nothing generic or mundane about the cuisine at SLC Eatery. The new restaurant is the love child of co-chefs and co-business partners Paul Chamberlain and Logen Crew. … [Read more...]

Molise 2.0: New Digs for Venerable Caffe Molise

October 12, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

The dining room was festooned with white plastic patio furniture and the menu was limited. The food, however, was excellent and I still remember how much I enjoyed Shelley’s aio e oio … [Read more...]
