I want to go to:
Rioja
1431 Larimer St.
Mediterranean, and website currently has a picture of a cocktail with jalapenos floating in it. Sign me up. Also, an excellent brunch menu featuring buttermilk waffles, crab crepes, and goat cheese biscuits. This also appears to be a minute away from your apartment! Sigh, I bet you've been to there.

Root Down
1600 W. 33rd Ave.
The Times mentioned this one in their recent article on local food in Denver. They have an enticing happy hour menu with hoisin duck sliders and sweet potato falafel. The space used to be a gas station and maintains a lot of 50's design elements. Ugh, you've probably been there, too.

Colt & Gray
1553 Platte St., #120
Another recommendation in that Times article. Oysters and coppa, marrow and beet burgers. The most baffling/intriguing thing on their menu would probably be the Croque Madame with Tomato Soup Apple Cider Fried Chicken Sandwich with Fennel Kraut. What?

There you go, cuz. What do you think?
P.s. -- Does anywhere in Denver serve lunch?

No, Biscuit. No one in Denver eats lunch. And anyway, you're still at Sarah Lawrence, and you know what that means--figure watchin'.
ReplyDeleteI would like to steer you in the direction of our old endeavor to take high tea together. Check out The Brown Palace. I'd like to try to go to Root Down with you. xoxoxoxoxoxox
