My primary source(s) for info on PC food and fun have been google, yelp, and the PC subreddit.

ROUGHING IT

Zion Nat’l Park

Angels Landing. 5000+ foot drop. one of the best views of your life
Weeping Rock.
Emerald Pools.
The Narrows. You have to walk in water and people rent special shoes for that purpose.
*there’s a Mexican restaurant in Springdale that looks like it was an old gas station called something like “La Casita” that’s supposed to be good. Guacamole and the burrito were specifically credited with being tasty.

FOOD

$$$ (“Don’t you know who we are?!”)

Twisted Fern. This place is highly regarded amongst those on the PC subreddit. The smoked trout dip sounds delicious, but I really wish it were called something other than smoked trout dip for some reason. The name bothers me, but I am willing to bet I can get past that. Anyway, prices are on the low side of fancy. They serve duck. Duck rhymes with fuck, which is something we like to do.

710 Bodega. So, this is a tapas restaurant. Tapas means small plates. Small plates are cute. Like you. Maybe we can go there and let you be cute among the cute things.

Riverhorse. This establishment appears to be the big deal restaurant of restaurant row on main street in PC. The menu is composed of things that sound like tasty and fancy mountain man food (such as a wild game trio and hand-cut buffalo tartare). Also has some seafood dishes (halibut, salmon, shucked oysters).

$$ (“We’re just two salt of the earth folk.”)

Saltbox. This place is the sister eatery to Riverhorse Restaurant (listed above). Here, we can get tasty sandwiches made for us and buy fancy coffee AND we can get meat, cheese, crackers, etc. upstairs from the the little shoppe.

Harvest. All day breakfast. They serve stuff with ricotta, which I like very much. Saw some sammiches on the menu as well.

The Chop Shop. Makes really nice cheese boards togo. Also has a good selection of sandwiches (fried chicken, french dip, meatball, ham and swiss with tomato soup, etc.).

Nosh. I thought maybe you might be interested in having our first meal together be mediterranean food. For old time’s sake? ;) In all seriousness, this place is super-casual and has hummus platters and other stuff that might hit the spot if we’re in a mood that calls for something like that.

$ (“We are but humble servants.”)

The Market. This is a grocery market. That’s probably where it gets its name from. It sells groceries, as you might guess. However, it also has this little grill and eating area that allegedly looks like a high school cafeteria where you can get breakfast sammiches in the AM and tacos at lunchtime.

Sergios. Look, I realize we probably shouldn’t fuck around with Tex-Mex in Utah, BUT, this place is sit-down, cheap, purportedly tasty, and has a salsa bar. IT HAS A FUCKIN SALSA BAR!

DRINK

Atticus Coffee. This place is supposed to be set up like a living room inside. Named after Atticus Finch of To Kill a Mockingbird. So it’s all about lawyers and justice and shit, which is cool.

Ritual Chocolate. Okay, so not really a “drink,” but they do have good coffee, and, more importantly, hot chocolate. Sometimes I like hot chocolate instead of coffee. Especially if it’s good, you know? Anyway, they have chocolate here too. Fuck yeah.

ACTIVITIES

Paddle board Yoga in an Ancient Crater. From their website: “We’ll enjoy a peaceful sunrise/morning or nighttime trek through the quiet forest, illuminated by only the stars and the beam of your headlamp for the night trips. After, we’ll splash into the steamy mineral water of the Homestead Crater for an hour of paddleboard yoga. Encased in ancient stone and fully protected from the elements for year-round enjoyment, the Homestead Crater’s Caribbean-blue waters instantly transport you from the mountains of Utah to pure, otherworldly bliss.”

Park City Mountain Coaster. I watched a GoPro video of this in its entirety on YouTube and it was gorgeous. Here’s some info from their website: “Utah’s longest Mountain Coaster winds through more than a mile of loops and curves at speeds up to 25 mph. Just like your favorite roller coaster, but with the refreshing mountain scenery of Park City.”
