  Fancy Burger at 37 W University Pkwy in Orem (very close to Provo) is in the same shopping area as Barnes and Noble, close to Crumbl Cookies. This is a brand-new burger restaurant as of May 2023. Fancy Burger paid for a full-page ad in one of the local community free circulars that is sent to our home. This is what piqued my interest in trying this new hamburger restaurant. They did not include a special or a coupon. They did include their pricing for the regular menu items but not for their monthly “Fancy Burger” which runs between $27 and $37 for one burger! Three of us went to try Fancy Burger on their grand opening day. It was crowded, but we were able to get a table because we knew to go before the rush hour! The atmosphere is really fun, bustling, and high-end… I enjoyed the dec...

  Hungry for some tacos? Who doesn’t love a great taco? One of my daughters and I were getting some needed outfits required by her work. We just left Burlington’s Coat Factory in Orem near the University Mall when she spied this little Taco restaurant called… Jurassic Street Tacos. It’s right around the corner from Provo in Orem on East University Parkway. When I think of street tacos, I imagine small tiny tortillas like the kind you get from some of the little taco trucks. They do offer the small ones but you will be tempted by the Jurassic options! The tacos at Jurassic Street Tacos are anything but small even though they do have 5 Taco trucks serving small to large tacos. The location we went to was the restaurant location in the same strip mall as Barnes and Noble Book Store, In and...

  I have a story for you! So, there we were, gearing up for my eldest granddaughter’s big 16 — yeah, the sweet sixteen bash.
