.....
yeah, i'd like to eat at any of batali's restaurants, les halles cause of bourdain, and le bernadin because of eric rippert.

That said, Market Street Grill is a winner (also their oyster bar). Lamb's is excellent. I hear good things about the Five Alls.

Coffee-shop-wise, go to the Salt Lake Roasting Company, on 4th South. I spent many many MANY hours there as a teenager. MANY. It's also right across the street from the amazing new public library, which is worth a stroll through.

sweet, thanks for the tip. no matter what, i'm going to that coffeeshop.

I'd really like to go to Bangkok. I hear the street food there is excellent.
japan has some amazingly good food, nothing, NOTHING beats a good bowl of ramen. NOTHING i say. and their cheapest sushi is better than anything you can get in the states.

the street food in bangkok is 10,000 times better than the food in any chain restaurant here in the states.
