KSL posted an article yesterday that got me all melancholy. 

Here's the link it's by Kathleen Clove "Classic Utah Restaurants no longer taking your order"

She lists the Training Table that apparently had great cheese fries, and several others. It was great to stroll down memory lane.

But the one that stood out to me was Fazoli's.

I loved Fazoli's!

I always thought of it as fast food Italian.

The breadsticks were incredible and there were no other places like it.

You didn't have to sit down and have a waiter or anything like that.

It was awesome.

In her article, Clove writes: (LINK TO FULL ARTICLE on KSL)

"When you needed a breadstick stat, Fazoli's was the place. The national, quick-service Italian food restaurant gained a bit of a cult following in the 90s, especially among high school and college students looking for cheap, tasty food. If you've been pining for inexpensive lasagna, rejoice! The chain has said it is making its way back to Utah. Five stores are planned, set to open between 2025 and 2030."

It was awesome to hear that the Fazoli's is planning on making a comeback and not just in Utah.

There are many times when you're driving around thinking of where to eat and you're sick of chicken and burgers and you don't want to go to a sit down restaurant with your crazy kids. Fazoli's baby. That was always a great answer and I'm glad to here it could be coming back to the Beehive State!
