Carrabba's Italian Grill - Sirloin Steak Marsala with Garlic Mashed Potatoes

This past Saturday we went out to eat at one of my all time favorite restaurants: Carrabba's Italian Grill in Orem. I was craving Italian Food in Orem and the only place that I really like is Carrabba's Restaurant.

I ordered Carrabba's Sirloin Marsala and it was awesome! Carrabba's Sirloin Steak Marsala consists of a 10 oz USDA Choice center-cut sirloin grilled and topped with mushrooms, prosciutto and their Lombardo Marsala wine sauce. I ordered Carrabba's Garlic Mashed Potatoes along side the Sirloin Marsala. This was the first time that I had tried this dish and it won't be the last. If you like Carrabba's Chicken Marsala dish then you'll love their Sirloin Marsala. You can't beat Carrabba's Marsala Sauce! This is one of those dishes where you won't leave anything left on the plate!!!

As usual the service was outstanding! One of the nice touches at Carrabba's in Orem is that the manager always comes over to ask us how our meal was! They really take care of you at Carrabba's in Orem.

Paradise Bakery and Cafe's Curry Chicken Salad Sandwich with Fire Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup

Last week I ate lunch at The Paradise Bakery and Cafe in Sandy and my food was pretty darn tasty! I ordered the 1/2 Sandwich and Soup Combo Meal.

For the Sandwich at Paradise Bakery I got the Curry Chicken Salad Sandwich on Whole Grain Bread. The Curry Chicken Salad Sandwich is made of Paradise Bakery's Mild Curry Chicken Salad, Craisins, Sunflower Seeds, Granny Smith Apples, Lettuce, Tomatoes and Mayonnaise. I would rate Paradise Bakery's Curry Chicken Salad Sandwich an 8 out of 10.

For the Soup I ordered Paradise Bakery and Cafe's Fire Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup. The Fire Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup came highly recommended from my Dad so I decided to try it. I'd give Paradise Bakery and Cafe's Fire Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup about a 7 out of 10.

Paradise Bakery and Cafe's Sandy location is located at 10431 South State Street, Sandy, Utah. Their phone # is (801)676-7323. Paradise Bakery's Sandy location should be a great hit for them. It is located across the street from the South Towne Mall.

If you get a chance go try Paradise Bakery and Cafe's Chicken Curry Salad Sandwich and their Fire Roasted Garlic Tomato Soup!!!

Kneader's Bakery and Cafe

Kneaders Bakery in South Jordan is on my top ten list! Tonight we decided to stop by Kneaders for dinner. For those of you who haven't tried Kneaders you've really been missing out.

I frequent the place at least monthly but have never ordered a piece of Kneaders carrot cake. Tonight I caved. Forget having a Sandwich or Soup for dinner. I was having Carrot Cake and a tall drink of milk and no one was going to stop me!!

Kneader's Carrot Cake is moist and loaded with Cream Cheese Frosting. It has juicy raisins and is lightly sprinkled with walnuts. I loved every bite of it. I usually get their Berry Cheesecake which is delicious as well. I believe that all of the food at Kneaders is made from scratch, from the breads to the desserts. And you can really taste the difference!

Next time you can't decide what to eat for dinner head out to the nearest Kneaders and get a piece of Carrot Cake!

Oh, I almost forgot! Try their "All You Can Eat French Toast" breakfast! It rocks!

Dairy Keen - Home of the Train in Heber, Utah

If you are in the mood for a great hamburger in Heber, Utah then "hold on tight" because I have a great recommendation for you! Let me suggest The Home of the Train, also known as Dairy Keen in Heber, Utah. No that's not a typo! It is really called Dairy Keen. The building used to be a Dairy Queen Restaurant and when the new owners took over the building they renamed it Dairy Keen because it was cheaper and easier to just replace the "qu" with a "k". You can read the history of the Dairy Keen in Heber by visiting their website http://www.swissalpsinn.com/.

Dairy Keen is located on Main Street in Heber, Utah. Normally I don't blog about fast food but I have to because this place is unique. It's a great place to take your kids. To celebrate the history of the Heber Creeper (which is a train that used to deliver supplies to Heber City and sheep to Salt Lake but now is a tourist attraction) the owners have created a miniature replica of the Heber Creeper overhead inside the Dairy Keen. Thus the Dairy Keen in Heber is also referred to as the Home of the Train. My son, along with the other kids thought that the train was awesome!

Now to the Food!!! When you make it to the Dairy Keen try the Train Burger Combo. It's delicious. The Train Burger has on it a Juicy Hamburger, Ham, Melted Swiss and American Cheese, Special Sauce, Tomato, Lettuce and Pickles. The combo of course comes with fries and a soft drink. My son and I also ordered a large Raspberry Shake to share. It was awesome! We had a group of eight people and we all loved the food at the Dairy Keen in Heber.

So if you're passing through Heber and you want a great Hamburger or Shake then stop by the Dairy Keen. Their parking lot and the restaurant will be jam packed because people love the Dairy Keen's food but don't let that deter you. The service is fantastic and you won't have to wait long to get your food!

Bajio Mexican Grill's Chicken Green Chili Stuffed Quesadilla

If you've never tried Bajio Mexican Grill then you are really missing out!! Bajio's has several locations in Utah. I eat at Bajio's at least once a month. If I don't then I have severe withdrawals. Their food is always fresh and full of flavor.

I especially like Bajio's Chicken Geen Chili Stuffed Quesadilla. It is awesome! If you haven't tried it then stop whatever you are doing and head to the nearest Bajio Mexican Grill.

Cobblestone Pizzeria and Cafe

I just wanted to do a quick post on Cobblestone Pizzeria and Cafe in American Fork. The real Title to this post should be "Cobblestone, Lose the Cafe!".

About a week ago we went out to dinner at Cobblestone and instead of ordering a pizza for the family we made the huge mistake of ordering sandwiches and salads. I ordered their Chicken Artichoke Sandwich on a Wheat Hogi Bun and it was a "box office flop". The artichoke sauce had zero artichoke in it. It tasted more like someone mixed sour cream and fettuccine cream sauce. It was tasteless. My wife ordered their Southwest Chicken Salad (I think that's what it was called). It was lack luster!

Anyway the bottom line to this post is: If you go to Cobblestone Pizzeria and Cafe in American Fork stick with the Pizza. Their Pizza is Awesome!! Sandwiches and Salads are mediocre at best. So Cobblestone Pizzeria and Cafe you might want to consider either revamping your sandwiches and salads or lose the Cafe in your name.

"That's all I have to say about that!
