Dining At Church Headquarters

For the past two days I have eaten lunch at the Church's employee cafeteria. This place is HUGE! There are a lot of food choices, including several main dishes as well as soup, a "build your own" sandwich bar, salads, desserts, and more. It's in the basement of the Church Office Building. It's normally only open to employees, but they give guest tickets at the Family History Library for the patrons, so we genealogy researchers mingle with those nicely suited and dressed Church employees.

I have never seen so many suits in one place at one time. There's obviously a dress code if you work for the Church, unless you are a custodian, groundskeeper, maintenance person, etc. Most of the men wear black or very dark suits, although there are a few lighter-toned suits, and some men in slacks, white shirts and ties. The women are very neatly dressed in dresses or skirts and sweaters. Since I have a hard time finding dresses I like back home, perhaps I should take in some shopping here in Salt Lake, because it's obvious these women are buying dresses here.

But back to the food! Yesterday I had a sloppy joe and some yummy potato salad for lunch. Great tasting food! Today I had burritos and seafood salad. I'll be going back tomorrow, but I don't know what's on the menu. The food is good, there are plenty of choices, including desserts and salads and beverages. They do know how to eat at the Church's employee cafeteria.
