Good Utah Restaurants

Myung Ga is ridiculously overpriced. There needs to be more competition in the korean food sector in Utah.

I was highly involved in the investigation into the company up there that was "killing" you all. Please tell me you weren't one of those tools.

Please give me more details on that. I don't think everything they do is "right", but I don't think it's nearly as bad as people want to think. If it were truly that bad, they never would have allowed this area to be developed.

First, I have to state that everything I write is my opinion only.


It's nothing more than a real estate battle. From what I understand, the current mayor was on the city council when they rezoned his land, but of course he recused himself, butting elbows with his buddies on the council. Another big activist is a real estate agent who both sold homes and bought a home knowing the place was right there, but only got a conscience after the mayor's ongoing battle to get them kicked out so they could re-develop more land started getting a ton of media attention. We all know the governor was a land developer before getting into office, but I won't give my speculations on why he attempted to use his executive powers to shut them down like a dictator, or why he sent me on a witch hunt to gain enough evidence to start the process the legal way.


As far as the emissions go, let's just say it's laughable that anyone is worried about them. For one thing, dioxins and furans settle out of the airshed further away than those right next to the place. Also, only 2% of our uptake comes from breathing the stuff. They're bio-accumulators, and if you don't want the nasty stuff inside you then stop drinking milk or barbecuing meat (something like 40 and 35% of our uptake).


I read their Notice of Intent and their potential to emit mercury emissions were something like 1.3/100 of 1 lb per year. Dioxins and furans were on the same order, but double, I can't remember which was double between mercury and those. Take into account that potential is pretty much never reached and you're even lower than that. Those levels are nothing.


The part we joke about around the office, and I'm not knocking your neighborhood at all (I've looked there several times as it's close to my work), is that the complainers live beneath a ton of refineries and between 3 freeways, yet they can't stand this place because the activists have them scared crazy.


As far as what they do being right or wrong, our waste goes into the air, the water, or the dirt. I don't want dirty needles or livers from transplants going into the landfill or the ocean. Perfect addition to a food thread huh.

I freaking love me some taco carts.

Love em like I love taking one nighters home from the pub. If the hours long intestinal love making doesnt burst your guts the disease is bound to come a wallopin. Carts and bar fits both hit me the same.
 
Went to that kitschy downtown on 2nd south today. Pretty tight little shop. My boss who married a German stay at home dude suggested it after I complained there wasn't good corned beef to be found on st Patricks day. I needed some comfort food so I hiked down that way.

I loved the setup. Giant meat and cheese counter to walk on while you wait to put in your order. Really works up the glands and gets your brain tuned into eating a feast. The sausage rack brought back good memories of summer at my friends grandmums farm. Her husband lived for sausage making. Damn them Germans can fix a fine meat.


I ad the Hungarian goulash because the nostalgia really hit home. It was some of the best goulash for the price ive ever tasted. The sauce was rich and deep and the beef chunks plenty. My only counter was the quality of beef was a tad below my expectations. Sauce more than made up for it.


I'm going tomorrow for the Reuben. Nothing replaces good German sauerkraut. This white scat you serve in Utah is gross!
