When you typically start the week, Wednesday isn’t really a highlight nor does any good story begin with, “Last Wednesday, things got lit!” or “I can’t wait for Wednesday, because I can really throw it back!”. However, last Wednesday was pretty bumpin’ with Wu-Tang Wednesday at Dos Santos. The former Southside Johnny’s location has really…

Nordic Nibbles
Nordic traditions are not on my radar nor am I even familiar with any eats or recipes. But, smørrebrød sandwiches (Danish, for bread & butter) popped up in my quest to learn more about a new Scandanavian restaurant opening, with bright salmon, pickled herring, and cured meats. What is special about this adventure is that…
Sweet & Savory Decisions
This hidden gem came on the radar months ago on Instagram. Interestingly enough, I am not a huge sweets fan in the slightest. I typically eat so much beforehand that the top button of my jeans is undone, and dessert seems exhausting. But when I came across the word SAVORY on the menu, I piped…
A Trip Down The Rabbit Hole
Unbeknownst to me when I set up my visit to The Rabbit Hole that I was venturing down the stairs to what used to be the city morgue. I was mid-gulp of my Rosé when this revelation was revealed, and yes, the hairs on my neck stood up. Our table of eleven nervous brave patrons…
Eat with the Kings | NaRai Siam Cuisine
I don’t typically head to a restaurant to satisfy my desire for Thai food. My Friday night consists of pajamas, Parks and Recreation on Netflix, and a delivery of Pad Thai around 9:30pm. I’m serious. Well, folks, things are a-changin’ in 2017. I selected a sensible outfit for my trip off the couch, and headed…
Wrangled up at Cowboy Star
For several months, I have had Cowboy Star on my culinary radar, browsing their menu weekly with the anticipation of a young child on their way to Disney World. I reviewed the dinner menu and felt that it was a bit pricey for my very small dainty wallet. However, the lunch menu had some of…
Visiting La Cava
It’s been several weeks since I experienced this very upscale and unique setting – but it is still very fresh in my mind. This southwest Colorado Springs restaurant is situated on 8th street in a maze of office buildings. At night, it was a little difficult to find, but once I walked up it was…
Luck It’s Food Art
It has taken me a couple of weeks to articulate this experience upon seeing a childhood food favorite, Pork Rinds(Skins), on the menu. This sent me into a culinary tailspin! Brother Luck Street Eats is by first glance a quaint, bustling restaurant on the edge of the historic Old Colorado neighborhood. But, as you walk…
Lets “Play” at The Broadmoor
This isn’t your typical bowling experience. Strolling through the many corridors to get to the actual bowling alley leaves you a bit starry-eyed and breathless, and I think that is their intention at The Broadmoor. I visited here on a chilly Fall night just before dusk and it was a sight to see. Parking was…
Touchdown at Panino’s
When I was growing up, Italian food was always my absolute favorite! I remember a time when I thought Olive Garden was the best restaurant ever. It made me feel adult and sophisticated at the tender age of 14, but now that my palate has matured with age and exposure I’ve discovered a new love…
