Station 22 | Bianca's La Petite French Bakery

In our quest to eat at every restaurant on or near Center Street in Provo, Sarah and I visited Station 22 and Bianca's two nights ago.

We ate dinner at Station 22, and I was quite impressed. The interior is pretty unusually decorated, but I liked the feel they were going for—like a unique craftsman, if that makes any sense. The food blew me away. For one thing, they have plenty of root beer/sarsaparilla options, which I absolutely loved (root beer is my favorite soft drink). I went with the house draft, and it didn't disappoint—sweet, mellow, with a bit of a zing, not too spiced. Sarah had a salted caramel root beer, which was tasty in its own right. I'll definitely try to go back and try their other options sometime.

We split three dishes—a poutine appetizer (which I always like; this one was particularly flavorful), a Memphis chicken sandwich (with purple slaw—sweeter than I expected), and a Golden State burger (mozzarella and garlic aioli pesto, two of my favorite additions to any dish). Plus we had salads with fun dressings. Overall it was a very satisfying meal, and if we get the chance, we'd like to go back.

Bianca's was for dessert on the way home. Sarah tried a macaron and some marzipan and enjoyed both (the marzipan was nice and creamy). We split a raspberry cronut, which I'd never had before. I liked it about as much as I like a raspberry doughnut (quite a bit), and it was a nice sugary end to a filling meal.

Overall, the trip was a success.
