YOU DECIDE THE PRICE RESTAURANT!!

ONE WORLD CAFE!!!

One World Everybody Eats is located at 41 South, 300 East beside the Utah College of Massage Therapy near downtown Salt Lake City The kitchen is open 7 days a week from 11 a.m. until 8 p.m. There is a main dining area near the kitchen and five, semi-private dining areas both upstairs and downstairs. Guests may also eat at patio areas in front and behind the restaurant. Total seating capacity is about 60. The kitchen has no set menu. This lets the cooks use their creativity to prepare a variety of seasonal soups, salads, entrees, and desserts. The food stuffs are all-organic and the cuisine ranges from vegeterian to meat. There is a large vegan selection. The cafe provides water, coffee and teas, regular and soy milk but no soft drinks or alcohol. You may bring non-alcoholic drinks if you like.

One World Everybody Eats asks guests to pay what they feel the meal warranted. This requires guests use their fairest judgement. Although the kitchen is a non-profit establishment, it still must meet regular business expenses. Guests are asked to consider this when visiting.

Shipwrecked boats in the Great Salt Lake.

THE GREAT SALT LAKE SHIPWRECKS!!!

During the hay days of Saltair and the age of the railroads prominence in Utah, tug boats were common place throughout the Great Salt Lake.

The Union Pacific decided to abandon its main wooden trussle bridge from Ogden to Tooele across the lake. A more secure rock and gravel bridge was to be constructed.

Two tugboats and a ferry were left to take customers and assist travelers across the short cut to Tooele / Ogden.
One night a storm came across the Great Salt Lake and pulled the two tug boats from their anchors. The tugboats went missing in action as if some sort of Salt Lake Triangle sucked them up into oblivion.

As the dirt tracks began to be built the engineers ran into a problem, the rocks were not settling correctly. They dove into the whole 15 feet deep water (Great Salt Lake is only 20 feet deep) and discovered the two missing tugboats.

Rather than pull them up, the workers decided to just build around them. As the lake has receded over time, you can now see the boats. Unfortunately you can't get to the boats or the old wooden trussles without the assistance of a boat.

So if you can get a boat...I will tell you the secret on how to find these boats. But Beware....maybe there is a Great Salt Lake Triangle!!!!
