I had never been to Denver or Colorado for that matter and was quite excited to go. It was really beautiful. I cut out of a few of the conference sessions and went to the Amphitheater at Red Rocks. It was really cool.
They had a listing of all the bands that played there. What was I doing in 1984 that I missed the Clash??!
The restaurants were really great. Larimer Street had lots to offer.
First I went to Rioja. I had a tough time deciding what to have. I opted for the Octopus Farfalle in an appetizer portion. I was glad that I did. It was a tad bit spicy and we all know what I baby I am when it comes to heat. Then I had the Scallops as a main course. It came with eggplant spanakopita. It was quite good. Sorry no pics, I was busy eating. For dessert, I had the variations of chocolate, which was beautiful as well as delicious. I at least took a picture of that. We were also treated to a mini beignet. I have to say it was better than the one that I had in New Orleans (shhh - that's a secret).
Also worth a visit was Tag. Very Asian influenced. their OG Taco Sushi was fabulous. What's not to like guac, ahi, and a mini taco shell (I was better about taking pictures here - as you can see)
Next up was the Alaskan Halibut. The zucchini sofrito was delicious.
Last but certainly not least was dessert. The banana cream pie was delicious.
The chocolate panna cotta looked great
as did the key lime pie.
All it all it was a very successful eating trip.
