Right idea, poor execution--Eva

It's tiny and it has a certain charm. We love tapas so we were intrigued. HOWEVER, they fired all of our dishes at once so we had SIX dishes sitting on our tiny table at once. Hello? This meant that our meal was over in like 38 minutes. Not cool. So while we would have ordered more drinks, the meal was over so quickly, we just decided to cut our losses and go somewhere else.

The food, while not BAD was totally uninspired. Nothing had any focus. Too many ingredients, nothing seemed to have any soul. The Brussel Sprouts were good. The shrimp and grits was pretty good (well, at least the grits and the egg part of the dish were good), The oink oink oink and gnocchi were underseasoned., the mac and cheese was a mess, our crab salad had a piece of metal in it (although the waitress did take it off of our bill). Nothing that we ate was anything to write home about. Maybe the pizzas are good? We didn't try them, but if you're going to have pizza, go to settabello.

Salt Lake is in DIRE need of THIS restaurant, but executed properly. Dangit, is all I can say. We had high hopes.

Les Madeleine--Bakey Extraordinaire!

This bakery has no business being in Utah. NO BUSINESS, I TELL YOU!!! The Kouing Amon is the best thing I have ever tasted. Fluffy, buttery goodness. The coffee is great and the home made cream is off the charts. I've had lunch there once or twice too, and THAT was also amazing. The lunch is like $1-2 too expensive, but hell, they are downtown and they are doing it different and awesome. I'll pay a premium to have a gem like this in Salt Lake. This place can do no wrong in my book. Yum. Yum. Yum.
