Tiburon’s Tenth
I got a note from Ken Rose, owner of Tiburon Fine Dining in
Sandy, saying that the end of September marks the 10th anniversary of
his restaurant’s opening. To celebrate, Ken and the Tiburon staff are
hosting a party in the restaurant’s parking lot on Saturday, Sept. 26,
from 6-10 p.m. In addition to a big buffet dinner (pork tenderloin,
salmon, chicken, pasta salad, veggies, desserts, etc.), Ken has hired
the band Voodoo Box to play live during the party and the event will
also feature Tiburon’s annual limbo contest. (Apparently a Tiburon
employee named John has won the contest for nine years straight.) The
cost for the Tiburon 10th Anniversary Parking Lot Party is $30 per
person (which includes a commemorative T-shirt) and $10 for kids under
12. Tiburon is located in Sandy at 8256 S. 700 East. Phone the
restaurant at 801-255- 1200 or visit online at TiburonSLC.com.
Winging it
Holy smokes! The Wing Coop won second place in the “Best Traditional Hot” category at the 2009 National Buffalo Wing Festival held in Buffalo, N.Y. this past Labor Day weekend. Competing against more than 25 other restaurants, The Wing Coop was the only one west of the Mississippi to win an award. For more Wing Coop info, including locations, visit WingCoop.com.
