2008 Top Five - Restaurants
One of the downsides of living on an island 21 square miles that has to import almost entirely everything is that the restaurants aren't much cop. It may have come to your attention that I like eating out, it has certainly come to my waist bands attention.
My Top 5 restaurants in 2008 were:
1) The Mariposa, Deer Valley
The best place I ate last year. A wonderful location with a real elegance without being pretentious.

2) May Street Market, Chicago
Oh how I miss Chicago's restaurants. This was the best one I went to before we left. Gloriously simple and reasonably priced. The service was exemplary.
Website3. Copley's, Palm Springs
A beautiful setting at what was once the home of Cary Grant. A great meal sat under a sky full of lucent stars in Palm Springs.

4) Joël Robuchon, Las Vegas
I loved this over the top place tucked away within the MGM Grand. We sat at the bar and ate from the enterprising menu paired with some equally bold wines.
Website5) Purple Sage, Park City
An intimate setting decked with purple accents. This long and narrow restaurant could easily be missed on Park City's Main Street. Don't miss it, the food and atmosphere was fantastic.
