Dear Reader,
Happy New Year and thanks for visiting my blog. August 2009 marked the beginning of this endeavor, and my readership and waistline have been growing in alarming proportion since then. 2010 promises to be a another food-filled year as I gifted my wife the DINR deck for Christmas (kind of like when Homer got Marge a bowling ball), and plan on working my way down the list of Denver's Independent Network of Restaurants over the year.Until then, please leave a comment at the end of this post (or email denveronaspit at gmail.com) of a place you would like to see me write about. Anything unique and decidedly great will do. I'll leave it up to you. (As a bonus I actually would love to know where I can get tostadas de pata--pickled pigs feet.) I will choose the most enticing option upon my return, and to the lucky winner I will send the modest prize of one of my (wife's) DINR deck cards: that is, $10 off at one of Denver's Independent Network of Restaurants. If you tell me where to get tostadas de pata you get two cards.
For the duration of 2010 I hope you will continue to check in, get my feed and/ or follow my tweets as I continue my taco al pastor countdown (one, two, three, four...) and delve into my DINR deck. With that, I leave you with this thought which, for better or for worse, pretty much sums up what I do here: talk a lot of nonsense. Hopefully you will find it amusing and informative.
"I like them to talk nonsense. That's man's one privilege over all creation... Talk nonsense, but talk your own nonsense, and I’ll kiss you for it."
Back Soon.

Den Deli and Seafood Market
ReplyDeleteFor your pastor obsession, Tacos Tijuana (4406 Sheridan).
ReplyDeleteMasterpiece Deli (egg salad, cubano or reuben)
Billy's Inn- Bar food tacos
Check out El Paraiso, everything is good there!
ReplyDeleteTom's Home Cookin...the best southern fare in Denver. Fried catfish, meatloaf, cobbler, collards, mashed potatoes, cornbread, the list goes on....the menu changes daily and is served until the food runs out. All homemade and delicious. Hidden in Five Points in a shanty of a building, appearances definitely deceive. YThe servings are enormous and the price is not. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI have to second Tom's. That is my favorite restaurant in all of Denver. The one I try to hit every time I'm back.
ReplyDeleteA few I'm surprised you haven't mentioned yet:
New Saigon on Federal - IMHO the best vietnamese in the country.
Efrains in Boulder - the best green chile outside of NM.
Damascus on S. Colorado - huge Lebanese meat platters!
