“May I ask, do you have any dishes that play with time? The concept of time?”
-Keanu Reeves, Always Be My Maybe [2019]

We talk about a lot of food here at Salt Plate City, but nothing truly gets us as excited as the dishes being created at the Best New American Restaurants in Salt Lake City. But what is New American Cuisine? I can already hear the smug reply of, “Cheeseburgers and fries HAHAHA Americans are fat.” Well, yes, but also no. Because burgers are German. And you aren’t funny.

New American Cuisine is a representation of us. It’s the combination of everything American. And what is distinctly American and found no where else in the world is the melting pot of cultures that is the United States of America. Before “fusion” was some trendy adjective, adventurous chefs across the country were experimenting with new flavors – combining the best elements of cuisines from around the world and, luckily for us, in every major American city. This exciting combination of flavors became what is now known as New American Cuisine. If you are looking for the best food being created right now, start with the Best New American Restaurants in SLC.
