SALT LAKE CITY Many Utah restaurants expanded their outdoor dining options this year, seeking to reassure customers while also adding capacity and staying in compliance with restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
But as chilly weather moves in and makes outdoor dining an unappealing proposition, some restaurants are getting creative to keep the practice and the extra business that comes with it.
Wasatch Brewery, for instance, announced Tuesday it will offer a unique outdoor dining experience at its Sugar House and Park City locations.
Starting this week, Wasatch diners can reserve a private outdoor igloo for their party. The igloos are described as large-scale and can accommodate up to eight people. Wasatch senior marketing manager Maxwell Christen said in an email the company hopes igloo dining will become a tradition for families who visit us this holiday season and into the winter months.
