🍽️ Salt Lake City Food Notes

Chinese food highlights: Eiko Cafe & L&P Bakery Cafe 🥢 This trip to SLC totally surprised me with its amazing Chinese food—had to document it! 📍 1. Eiko Cafe SLC Highly recommend: ✅ Suan Cai Yu (Pickled Fish Soup) – Tangy, savory, and fragrant. Drank every last drop of the broth! ✅ Cumin Lamb – One of the best I've ever had! Crispy outside, tender inside, loaded with cumin aroma. ⚠️ Their signature pork knuckle needs 30 mins to prepare, so we switched to Braised Pork Trotters—soft, sticky, and full of flavor, just as good! Paired with Shanghai Bok Choy & Mushrooms for a fresh, balanced meal. 📍 2. L&P Bakery Cafe ✨ A hidden gem with a 4.7 Google rating! Tried so many dishes—almost everything was on point: 🥢 Roast Duck – Crispy skin, tender meat, super fragrant 🥣 Fish Slice Congee – Light and comforting 🥬 Stir-Fried Pea Shoots – Crisp and fresh 🍝 Dry-Fried Beef Ho Fun – Perfect wok hei and texture 🍲 Claypot Rice – Another standout, with crunchy rice crust at the bottom Don’t leave right after— Nearby is H-Mart! Stopped by **Cha San Qian for a Taiwan Pearl Milk Tea to wrap up the meal perfectly 🧋 📌 Who knew SLC had Chinese food this authentic? A delicious surprise! Definitely worth a visit for anyone craving real flavors. #SaltLakeCity #SLCEats #SLCFood #ChineseFood #DimSum #FoodieFinds #UtahEats
