Roadside Dining in Price, Utah How can anyone resist a sign like this? Especially when it's lunchtime! On the Main Drag We pulled into the lot and had to make a decision. Sit in our car and be served, like the 1960's? Or sit at one of the tables? Easy Choice That was an easy decision. It was about 95 degrees, there were umbrellas and we had a breeze. Plus we'd been driving from Colorado and we were ready to be out of the car. Trinity came to our table and told us a little about the place. Old? The neon sign, sea foam green paint and glass windows, looked so retro, I wondered for a moment if the building could be a new. But Sherald's has been sitting here since at least the 1960's. I peeked in one of the many windows and there was quite a staff, bustling around the kitchen. On the Wall Trinity saw me peering inside and quickly pointed out the menu, on the far wall. We took a while, to take all in all the options. This is what we ordered! Road Food This is what roadside dining is all about. I never would have a corndog and tots anywhere else. All food rules go out the window, when I know I'm on the road and it's my only chance to ever eat at Sherald's! Don's burger was quite tasty. My corndog... was a corndog! Dessert Time From our spot at the table, I could look up and see the ice cream cone on the sign. I made sure to save room. Trinity came to our table to check on us. She pointed to our car and said she'd noticed we were from Texas. "Oh, I just love Texas." she said. I figured I could trust Trinity, so I asked for an ice cream flavor recommendation. I took her advice and ordered the swirl mix of pineapple and vanilla. Ice Cream Plus a Monkey! I'm not sure I have ever in my life had an ice cream cone with a plastic monkey on top! The monkey pretty much made my day. And so did Trinity. She was very sweet.

The Dining Blog
This is a blog about Dining Adventures. Sometimes, I talk about food. Below, you can read how this started. On July 4th 2011, I set a goal to try 50 culturally diverse restaurants in one year! (I knew that was possible, living in the Houston area) I spent the year pulling in friends and family to join me, on some unusual dining adventures. I met some curious people, tried some scary foods and explored places and cultures I never would have otherwise. Even though I met my goal, I learned too much to end my adventures in dining. I have continued blogging about memorable dining adventures of all kinds, near and far... and all the discoveries and funny things I've learned along the way! Locations and types of dining adventures, are listed further down. Archives
