New Restaurant on 9th E – T’s Diner replaces Chadders
This past May Chadders, a clone of In-n-Out Burger suddenly closed its doors state-wide. Since then, the location on 9th East where the Provo Chadders had recently been built has remained vacant.
Good news – the location has a new tenant, and it’s a Diner.
T’s Diner offers a creative mix of breakfast favorites, standard diner fare, and ‘Southern-Colorado Style’ Mexican Food.
From what I can tell, the location has kept much of the Chadder’s look, but has certainly expanded the menu. Hours are 6am til 11pm, except for Friday and Saturday when it’s open til Midnight.
It’s always great to see a new diner in Provo, especially one that makes up a pretty delicious homemade Hash Browns. Prices are also very reasonable, with a burger-fries-drink running about $5.
Food Carts in Downtown Provo
I recently had the opportunity to visit Portland with fellow council member Vice-Chair Healey and Mayor Curtis. During our visit we were impressed by the heavy population of street vendors and the varied services available within walking distance of our hotel in the heart of Portland’s downtown.
During last Tuesday’s meeting we had the opportunity to discuss downtown zoning and I had the opportunity to bring up something I knew both Mayor Curtis and Councilwoman Cabanilla have expressed an interest in seeing happen: food carts in downtown Provo.
There’s still details that remain to be determined in the next few weeks, but it looks like there’s enough support to start permitting food carts in Downtown Provo. Imagine, after enjoying the Beach Boys at the Covey, how great would it be to walk outside and get a taco afterwards?
