The Best Thing We Ever Ate

We love the Food Network show, The Best Thing I Ever Ate, and we recently came upon a contender for that title. Sometimes we think this has turned into a food blog, but what can we say, we like yummy food. My blogging idol, Shawni, talked about great places to eat in the Salt Lake area and mentioned a pizza place in Bountiful called Arella. So, when Melinda and I were looking for somewhere fun to eat a few weeks ago, we wanted to give it a try, and we were not disappointed. We started with caprese salad which we have both learned to love since Brent introduced it to us. Then we had some yummy pizzas - a white one and a barbecued chicken pizza. But, the best thing we absolutely ate was the dessert. It was hard to choose what to have from the menu because it all sounded amazing. As soon as our server talked about the chocolate calzone, we were sold. When we cut into the warm calzone, this ooey gooey marshmallow marscarpone and Belgian chocolate creation came gushing out and it was Ah-mazing! In fact, we asked for a spoon so we could scoop up all the chocolate goodness. These shaky phone pictures don't do the food justice. We couldn't stop raving about how good this was and seriously can't wait to go again; it's worth the trip. Next time we might do what the other diners were doing and start lighter with salads - which also sounded amazing - and leave plenty of room to try the calzone and other yummy delights. We highly recommend this local secret.
