This blog is dedicated to exploring the wonderful world of Salt Lake City, Utah. My goal is to hunt out and find those little places that no one has heard of but are just dying to be discovered. I hope this will be a fun guide to anyone wanting to take a weekend trip or someone just wanting to know more about the unique place they live.

The Melting Pot


This is one classy place. If you are willing to spend some money on some good quality food, then this is the place for you. Your not only paying for excellent food, but the whole experience. Every table has a hot plate, they mix all the ingredients right in front of you, so its really fresh. For an appetizer start out with a cheesy sauce with veggies and bread to dip it in. Next enjoy a hot broth to cook your delectable pieces of meat. And last but not least the dessert! Fruit, cheesecake, marshmallows, pound cake, all dipped into amazing chocolate.

If you want to try but dont want to spend to much go for just the dessert. It will be a experience to remember.

The Book Exchange



I wondered into this book store located on 1100 East and just off of 2100 South a week ago. I was so glad I went inside. It doesn't look like much but I fell in love! They have an awesome selection of books and they are reasonably priced. Also the service was awesome! Its one of those places were they know their customers by name. I found a book I have been wanting to re-read for a long time, Loves Music, Loves to Dance by Mary Higgins Clark.

It reminded me a lot of The Shop Around the Corner in You've Got Mail. Except it doesn't just have children's books.

It is definitely a place I want to visit again and again.

9th And 9th



One of the hidden treasures of Salt Lake City. This little nugget is something sweet to stumble upon. It has everything from a yoga studios, to designer boutiques. There are some yummy cafes and restaurants as well. My sister and I went there this weekend and had so much fun just looking at all the fun places.



First we went to Apt.202, which can only be described as chic fashion! I loved everything inside and wish I could afford it.



Our next favorite place was Children's Hour. Don't let the name fool you, it has designer women's and children's clothing and more. I think we each said, "That's SO cute!" about fifty times.

That took a bit of energy so we skipped across the street to Great Harvest, YUM!! And enjoyed a free slice of bread, and then bought some for the road.



We could have been there for hours and only got to see a bit of it but that just leaves more to discover next time.
