Overview
Updated 43 minutes agoSpirits Of Coffee/Brazil Day, a new coffee-and-Brazilian-food business, has appeared on the Salt Lake County Health Department's public food establishment register. The listing places it at 425 N 400 W in Salt Lake City and clears the business to operate.
A county food license is permission to serve customers, not proof the doors are open. The 'Brazil Day' in its name points to Salt Lake City Brazil Day, a Brazilian music-and-food festival set for September 5. That is three days after the register entry appeared.
Why it matters
If the business opens, Salt Lake City gains a new Brazilian coffee spot, and Brazil Day gets a possible permanent home.

Historical Context
3 moments from history that rhyme with this story — and how they unfolded.
Versailles Restaurant (1971)
Cuban exiles opened Versailles in Miami's Little Havana, serving Cuban coffee and food around the clock. It became a gathering place for the exile community and a stop for politicians seeking Cuban-American support.
The restaurant became a Miami institution within its first years.
It showed a coffee-and-food business can anchor a diaspora community; Versailles still operates today.
Spirits Of Coffee could play a similar role for Salt Lake City's Brazilian community.
Salt Lake City's Greek Festival
Salt Lake City's Greek Orthodox community started an annual food-and-culture festival at Holy Trinity Cathedral, sharing Greek food, music, and dance with the wider city.
The festival became a popular summer tradition for Utahns.
It has run for more than five decades, becoming a fixture of the city's summer calendar.
It shows a cultural festival can become a permanent Salt Lake City institution, the path Brazil Day could take.
Brazil Day in Newark's Ironbound
Newark's Ironbound district, home to a large Brazilian community, hosts an annual Brazil Day festival on the weekend of Brazil's independence day, with music, food, and vendors.
The festival draws large crowds to the district's Brazilian restaurants and shops.
It reinforced the Ironbound's identity as a Brazilian food destination in the U.S.
It is the template for Salt Lake City Brazil Day: a diaspora festival that feeds local businesses.
