Locals Only
On Sunday, Sept. 18, Fratelli Ristorante in Sandy (9236 Village Shop Drive, FratelliUtah.com) hosts a "locals only" wine pairing dinner with wines from two locally owned (Utah) wineries: IG Winery (Iron Gate) and Kiler Grove, along with locally produced menu items. Seatings are available from 5-8 p.m. The tentative dinner menu and wine pairings are as follows: Spanish-style bruschetta with IG Temperanillo; beet goat cheese and arugula salad with Kiler Grove Rosé; chicken pesto manicotti with IG Reserve Chardonnay; mixed local kabobs with IG Tempest Red Blend; and chocolate cake with black currant and cherry gelato with Kiler Grove Late Harvest Zinfandel. The per-person cost for dinner is $35 for food and $30 for optional wine pairings. There will also be a full bar selection available at an additional cost. Reserve your spot by calling 801-495-4550.

Manoli Menu
Manoli's (402 E. 900 South, 801-532-3760, ManolisOn9th.com) has introduced a late summer menu with new Greek dishes such as horiatiki heirloom tomato salad, kakavia seafood stew, and hirino me kaloboki fried pork shank.

Quote of the week: "I'm in favor of liberalizing immigration because of the effect it would have on restaurants. I'd let just about everybody in except the English."
