Utah's Last Supper


Utah has brought us culinary experiences that will last a lifetime: the good, the bad, and the blah. We must apologize for neglecting this food journal, but a cross-country move has taken up most of our time, as well as our pots and pans! Before we leave Utah, we would like to share what we have learned eating here over the last seven years.
