The Salt Lake Temple made a surprising appearance in the anime ‘Restaurant to Another World’ as the ‘home for the gods’.
The Japanese animated series is an anime adaptation based on a popular light-novel written by Junpei Inuzuka. It was aired from July 31 to September 18, 2017, on TV Tokyo and was simulcasted by Crunchyroll and Funimation in North America.
The story is about a restaurant in a corner of an undisclosed shopping district in Tokyo that offers non-Japanese cuisine. The store operates normally as like the others and closed during weekends and holidays. But for some reason, the shop opens on Saturdays and creates doorways to other worlds inhabited by mythical creatures such as Elves, dragon, and etc.
In episode 5, the TV series features the Salt Lake Temple. According to our friends in LDS Daily, a half-elf and a half-human princess needs to decide what to do with her life after being rejected by both the elves and humans. One of the choices was to go to the home of the gods which is the Salt Lake Temple.
