23 Stories: A Gastronomic Journey Through Flavors, Roots, and Adventures

At Monte, every dish is more than just a recipe: it’s a story, a memory, and a tribute to the moments that have shaped our cuisine. That’s why we invite you to be part of “23 Stories”, an unrepeatable experience that will take your palate on an intimate and deeply personal journey.

A 23-course dinner, with each course designed to tell a chapter of the chef’s life, inspired by his culinary adventures, cultural encounters, and the richness of the ingredients Utah has to offer.
