Mr. Beanz, I am a Clyde, and would be even if I get under 200. I too love to eat. Lets make that, LOVVVVEEEEEE to eat. I've eaten, many times at 4 of the 6 places in the Salt Lake City area shown on Diners, Drive ins and Dives. My favorite, is the "Red Iguana" and never fails to impress, I try something different everytime, but hate waiting when they are busy. Of the places we haven't tried, one place has always been too packed when we've gone (I hate crowds and refuse to wait more than 15 minutes for a seat) and the other is a bit more expensive than I prefer. That said, we do have a "fine Dining" establishment in my small town that is fantastic, and recently lowered some prices to attract more business.

I do try hard not to eat BAD all the time, recent bloodwork shows this to be accurate... And while I'm NOT losing weight currently, I'm not gaining either.

(the 4 places we've eaten, and eat at too frequently, Red Iguana (GREAT Mexican), Moochies (Great Phillie and meatball sandwiches), Lone Star Taqueria (good for fish tacos!), and Burger Bar in Roy, UT which has really good burgers, elk and buffalo and some really killer deep fried mushrooms. The 2 I haven't, Ruth's Diner is in a very popular location and ALWAYS packed, Pat's BBQ is always packed and pricier than I care to pay for BBQ, though, not outrageous.

Local fine dining is Sostanza, refurbished a fine old downtown building and has a lounge/bar as well.
