Eva's Bakery

Eva's Bakery, a little bakery and cafe on Main Street downtown, delivers on the tomato soup and grilled cheese pairing. Its tomato bisque is a creamy tomato basil soup bursting with tomato flavor, and the grilled cheese panini, made with Gruyère and bechamel sauce on country bread, is the right vehicle for getting it from the bowl. Order the tomato bisque with the grilled cheese panini.

The Salt Lake Tribune's cocoa ranking recommends drinking Eva's Bakery's hot chocolate in the cafe itself for the full effect. A server told the paper it is crafted with a mocha sauce made from dark chocolate chips, topped with a thick layer of foam finished in latte-style art, and the Tribune calls the balance just right, not too rich or too sweet. Order it with one of the bakery's French macarons or a chocolate eclair, both part of the wide pastry case the review points to alongside the cocoa.
