Self-Care Saturday: Slapfish

🐠 Y’ALL NEED SLAPFISH. 🐠 Our mom is an avid fish ‘n chips fan, so we’ve gotten to try fish ‘n chips in California, Boston, England, New Zealand, and basically anywhere they sell it, right mom? 😋@tellyh654

And let me tell you, the fish ‘n chips at @slapfish in Lehi, Utah were the best I’ve had in Utah by far! Also, i ordered a delicious fish taco and I got lobster taquitos for free for being a @yelpslc elite! 😎👏🏻

I gave this little joint 5/5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. So grant your fish wish, do yourself a fish favor and order some fish and chips at @slapfish if you are a Utah resident (they have one in Lehi, Sandy, and Park City). #selfcaresaturday

What We Are Eating Wednesday: NOLA

It’s #wwew (what we are eating Wednesday)! I (Anna) went to New Orleans, Louisiana for a occupational therapy conference last week, and I had a BLAST. Seriously, that place is like the soul of art and music in America!
⠀
While I was there I was all about the food (as always), and wrote @yelp reviews on everywhere I went. SO, I’ve compiled the 5 things you MUST try when you go to New Orleans, and some good restaurants to try.
⠀
1) OBVIOUSLY beignets. I had them like 4 separate times in 4 days 😅and by far the best were from Cafe Beignet. Plus they have live jazz music there!
2) bread pudding! I’ve always been weirded out by the concept of “bread” in my “pudding” but oh man it is HEAVENLY. I had this two times and my favorite was the French Toast bread pudding from Dickie Brennan’s.
3) traditional (or at least mostly) creole food. I got this when I ordered “the taste of New Orleans” from Oceana. DELISH. Red beans and rice, gumbo, androuille sausage...
4) pralines. I didn’t know this existed. It’s a yummy maple-y sugar-y Candy cookie thing. Laura’s candies was top notch in this department and they even let you try all the flavors first. Original is the best in my opinion.
5) seafood pasta. this is technically not a “restaurant” but we went on dinner jazz cruise on the “Chez Natchez” and it was SO fun. And the dinner buffet and seafood pasta there was delicious! And lastly, Cafe Amelie was charming in every way possible, and their jambalya and crawfish pastas were TDF (to die for 😋).

New Orleans is an incredibly fun palace to visit! Let me know if you decide to book a plane ticket now that you’ve seen all the food 🤣

Self-Care Saturday: Yelp Reviews

Hey folks. Anna here as always for our #selfcaresaturday 😍. I finally became a Yelp elite member this year, and I take my job of reviewing new restaurants very seriously 😎.

I want to share with you some DELISH spots I’ve found since moving to Salt Lake City in August. Swipe for pics.

1) Sweet Lake Biscuits and Limeade (breakfast/brunch)
2) Dolcetti gelato (dessert)
3) Robin’s Nest (lunch-sandwiches/salads )
4) The Mellow Mushroom (pizza)
5) Hire’s Big H (burgers and shakes: pictured is a phenomenal raspberry Oreo shake!)
6) Even Steven’s (breakfast and lunch-sandwiches/breakfast burritos)
7) Afghan Kitchen (lunch/dinner)

I’ve reviewed places in Santa Barbara, Boston, New Zealand, Provo, and SLC... I’m ALWAYS looking for new places to try! What are your all time faves? New faves?
