A century ago…well, maybe ten years ago, Ian Brandt opened the world famous restaurant called Sage’s Cafe in the heart of Salt Lake City.  It catered to people interested in healthy, vibrant food with lots of local, organic produce and amazing culinary feats.

Some years later, Vertical Diner was born.  Ian’s vision brought comfort food to a new group of people with veggie burgers and fries made with delicious local potatoes that draw visitors from around the world.

To serve the restaurants better, Ian opened a third location designed to create the main food items that would be delivered to the restaurants.  Cali’s Natural Foods has been open to businesses for catering and wholesale purchase.  Because of the buying power of pallet sized orders, Ian decided to open Cali’s to the public for the benefit of the whole community.

Now, shortly after opening, Cali’s is posed for tremendous growth.  Thanks to all of you who have helped achieve this milepost for local, organic whole foods!
