Peculinarian: For the Love of Thin Man
I just can’t get enough of Thin Man Tavern. If only Thin Man Tavern were an actual man (as opposed to a quirky neighborhood bar located on 17th and Race Street), I think I would be in love with him. He would be foreign (Spanish, most likely) and I would find him sitting alone, brooding...
Fork It: Zengo Goes Bottomless
Have you experienced the joys of bottomless brunch? No, not just the mimosas, the whole thing is bottomless. Zengo is an amusement park where all the rides are free and admission is only $35. In this case, the rides are latin/asian fusion dishes covering everything from potstickers to churros. Plates are small and flavorful and...
Peculinarian: Falafel Fusion Fiesta
I. Love. Falafel. The only problem is finding a Falafel joint that meets up to my strict standards for Middle Eastern cuisine. I mean (and I am going to be bitingly honest here), Denver is not necessarily known for its abundance of homemade chickpea based delicacies. Sure our music, nightlife and fashion scenes are some...
Boulder bEAT: A Riff on Liquid Dinner
Upon meandering into Riffs Urban Fare for the first time earlier this week, we overheard the host letting the walk-in patrons ahead of us down gently—booked solid for First Bite Boulder, with at least a 2.5 hour wait at 6 p.m. Sunday. What these defeated women weren’t in on: their wait time would have faded...
Peculinarian: The Corner Office Continues to Give
The Corner Office keeps on giving with their new theater dinner special inspired by the play, The Giver, now playing at The Denver Center for the Performing Arts. The Corner Office takes full advantage of being located right across the street from the Performing Arts venue by creating original menus each month based off the...
Boulder bEAT: Bite into Boulder
For anyone meandering up to Boulder for a bite this weekend, you’d be well advised to see if your eating place of choice is among the 47 participating in Boulder’s restaurant week, an annual event highlighting our foodie haven. If it is, make a reso. If not, change your plans. Kicking off its seventh year...
Peculinarian: The Art of Palettes
Vincent Van Gogh once stated, “I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.” I, personally, agree, and am always searching for the right hue to emblazon my sometimes dull nighttime. One Starry Night, I found the vibrancy I needed at Palettes located across the street from the...
What’s Fresh: Tuesday Nights at Central Bistro & Bar
Maybe you’ve already been to Central Bistro & Bar which opened this past summer in LoHi, or maybe you have yet to check it out but you definitely should. The bistro serves up classy modern takes on classic American cuisine blending comfort and elegance. Till now the restaurant has been open Wednesday through Sunday each...
Fork It: Fabulous Fall Fare at EDGE
If you think beef tartare is just a bunch of meat, think again. Executive Chef Simon Purvis made it for us in the kitchen ( at EDGE Restaurant & Bar) and I watched as twelve different ingredients were patiently added to bring out the natural flavors of the beef. These ingredients included onion, mustard, hot...
Boulder bEAT: All Treat and No Trick makes Jack a Full Boy
As I made the final strides through my neighborhood and toward my door on Halloween’s eve, something smacked me square in the face. Eyes bugged, I was then carried nose-ward, a cartoon character afloat an olfactory wave wafting from Lucky’s Bakehouse and Creamery this time…instead of the usual China Gourmet (another temptation altogether). I was somewhat prepared for...
Peculinarian: Vesta, Goddess of Restaurants
Vesta is the Roman Goddess of hearth and fire, and a fitting name for a restaurant that’s obvious priority is making everyone who walks through its doors feel at home. Vesta Dipping Grill, located on Blake Street in the Lower Downtown district of Denver, is not only a memorable place to take a date due...
