Lemon Rice Soup probably conjures a vision of the gloopy, thick and congealed version that you find as an afterthought in the Greek diner around the corner. This is NOT that soup. Brothy, rich and tangy with lots of fresh cracked pepper, this is my go-to, cure-all, it’s cold out…
Smoothies are apparently the lifeblood of America in January. We all overindulged. We all went a little overboard and now our bodies are more than a little ticked at us. A good, balanced smoothie has its place in my shaker bottle many mornings. I like to add raw beets or…
Greg and I flew into Istanbul from Rome. Late. We flew into the Asian side – so we had to take a bus for an hour to get to the modern European side. From there we had to take a taxi (a harrowing experience) to the Old City where we…

I think is was Oscar Wilde that said a good roast is a joy forever. Or I *may* have just made that up… This is officially post #50 since we started Suitcase Foodist back in September. Yay! We are fast approaching the holiday season and it’s officially time to decide…
One of my go to dishes at our favorite local Mexican restaurant is their Cochinita Pibil. I enjoy it almost every time we go there. I only learned what it was from watching a Robert Rodriguez film where Johnny Depp’s character orders the dish everywhere he goes. In the DVD extras,…
This post was published earlier this week on the Clark’s Condensed Blog. I had so much fun taking the photos and writing the post, I wanted to share it here too…. This is after all the street where I hang my hat. Downtown Salt Lake City has its own Broadway…
