New restaurants coming to Utah in the next year - El Pollo Loco, In-n-Out Burger, Corner Bakery, Sunflower Farmers Market

More new restaurants coming to Utah in 2008

It has happened about five times now. In the past few months, that is the number of times that I have received calls from people wanting to make reservations for The Cheesecake Factory. I laugh when it happens, and explain to them that I merely wrote a blog post about The Cheesecake Factory; I don’t actually work there. Someone suggested to me that I start taking the reservations, but I’m not sure that would be a good idea.

Anyway, following the success of TCF, there are already a few other restaurants lined up to move into Utah in 2008. Among them are El Pollo Loco, coming to Lehi in April, and In-N-Out Burger coming to Washington in April. Corner Bakery and Sunflower Farmers Markets are also moving into Salt Lake City this year.

I can’t honestly say that I get excited when more fast food companies come to our state (I was shaken after seeing the movie where the guy’s body almost shuts down after eating McDonalds for a month or so, and after hearing about ‘Fast Food Nation’), but I welcome companies like Sunflower Farmers Markets. We need more healthy food alternatives, and SFM offers healthier foods at more affordable prices than stores such as Wild Oats. I hear that Corner Bakery won’t be that bad either. They offer sandwiches, soups, and the like - a welcome alternative to deep fried fast food.

Expect to see Sunflower and Corner Bakery here by summer to fall.
