Latin health food

0
While my mom wouldn’t approve of my eavesdropping, committing this socially dubious act did help me pick up an intriguing tidbit about Zudaka Healthy Latin Food, Boulder’s new vegetarian restaurant. Zudaka is a derogatory term for a South American person, our server ...

Tibet Kitchen: bad parking, great prices

0
You know Tibet Kitchen. You’ve driven by its location on the corner of Arapahoe and Folsom dozens of times, seen its large sign advertising lunch specials starting at $4.95 and its nightmare of a parking lot and kept right on going, thinking “one day” to yourself. ...

Brunch at Boulder’s Brasserie Ten Ten

0
Recently a pal insistently extolled the virtues of Brasserie Ten Ten’s weekend brunch, but I remained skeptical. However, I have been happily satisfied with this French-influenced eatery’s fine happy hour and have splurged on its seafood platters. So friend Wayne and...

George’s Food & Drink hauntingly delicious

0
George's Food & Drink, adjoining the Boulder Theater, is named for the unfortunate George Paper who perished in the theater decades ago. Supposedly the victim of an accidental hanging, he's a restless soul said to still roam the building, a wispy shape in a drape. ...

Breakfast with a side of country charm

0
For me, weekend breakfasts take on a distinctly different tenor than workday morning repasts. All too often, the weekday meal is a hurried affair, consisting of downing a cup of java while rushing out the door after gulping down a bowl of granola of piece of fruit. ...

Harold’s is a cut above

0
Attached to Longmont’s Plaza Hotel, Harold’s Restaurant & Lounge ups the ante on this town’s fine dining with retro-styled cocktails and original farm-to-table preparations. Compared to the space’s previous tenants, the bar here assumes the guise of an old school ...

Returning to a Longmont seafood favorite

0
I’m not entirely sure why I hadn’t paid a visit to Longmont’s Tortugas in the last few years — in the late ’90s, I thought it was one of the best restaurants in the county. Combining a hospitable, homey, Key West feel with a menu of fresh seafood, prepared in the ...

Pica’s Taqueria

Co-worker David Accomazzo was blunt in what to expect from Pica’s Taqueria: “hipster tacos,” he said...

It’s in the name

0
There’s no better name for Precision Pours in Louisville than what they chose. Like many in the craft coffee world, there is a focus on acquiring the best beans from around the world, and there is a second focus on using the best methods available to extract flavor, ...

The re-creation of fun

0
The coleslaw was good. No, the coleslaw was great. The cabbage was crispy and fresh, lathered in sweet, creamy dressing that tasted like watermelon. They’d added some juice or vinegar into the coleslaw, and it was refreshing in the unseasonable warmth we’ve been ...

The water’s fine

0
One thing every diner needs in their toolkit is good, simple Asian food. Not simple in the sense that it’s of poor quality, but simple in the sense that it isn’t decorated to death, to the point of terminal tackiness. Just something approachably tasteful, and tasty...

Why do they even give you chopsticks?

0
One of downtown San Francisco’s busiest lunch spots is Sushirrito, whose menu you should be able to ballpark from the name. Like the Wu-Tang Clan, its forearm-sized sushi rolls ain’t nothing to mess with...
