Which weekend are you going? I'll be out there march 3-10. Of course they drink! Park City is nothing like the rest of utah. I don't drink beer either. There are 2 liquor stores in Park City -- one is on Main Street around 5th and the other (which is bigger) is in Prospector Square. In the supermarket, they only sell beer so forget about that (and it's 3.2 beer so if you're there with any beer drinkers, don't buy it there). They do have weird liquor laws. Clubs must be "members only" to serve alcohol so when you go in and they ask if you're a member, just say yes. They usually don't question. If you say no, they'll sell you a membership good for a week or so for around $4. Also, in some places, you can't order drinks without having food, so they'll sell you a bowl of chex mix for $0.50. And ordering mixed drinks in a bar isn't the best deal because the shots are all measured out. You can only get a good pour with wine.
I'm so bad with remembering names, but there's a cool place on Main street that's mostly locals that I hang out in. It's around 5th or 6th on the right side if you're coming from the bottom of main street (park avenue). There's a good, cheap place to eat on deer valley drive called the stew pot. It's on the left, if you're heading towards deer valley with a green awning. Mostly locals go there and it's cheap and good. For nicer restaurants, I like Zoom, Robert Redford's place, the Blind Dog Grill in prospector (separate restaurant and sushi place under one roof), bistro 412 on main street. Let me know if you want more recommendations. Also, a friend of mine owns the Cold Stone Creamery out at Redstone (by the Canyons), so go there and tell him I sent you. His name is Paul. Where are you staying? Here's a place for discount lift tickets: www.canyonsports.com. Let me know if you want any other info. On 2/8/07, areofilm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Damn, I've had a trip planned for the past 2 months and just now remembered your screen name. I'm going to the snow for the weekend, Canyons and probably Park City Mountain. Any tips on a place to drink (they do drink in Utah right?) I don't drink beer, I'm talking alcohol. --- In [email protected], Julie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Can I pitch an alternate location for thursday?
