A nice thing about Salt Lake City is neighborhoods (coming from a city that is somewhat neighborhood-deprived). Once nice neighborhood I found somewhat accidentally but now visit on a regularly is Sugar House. It has undergone a recent gentrification, with new buildings sporting a fake historical look housing a Whole Foods, Barnes and Noble, and Panda Express, but still, it is a nice walkable area and has an indie bookstore, Central Book Exchange.

I like to pick up a book there and then cross the street to hang out at Tea Zaanti and have some tea while I do some reading.

On my most recent visit I passed by this cool boxing gym called Boxing is For Girls.
