It’s Hip to Be Square

A A A Comments By Lori Midson Thursday, Jul 15 2010

If you like canopies of bright-white lights, big-city restaurants and the prospect of open-air feasting under a galaxy of stars, then you’ll love An Affair on the Square, which takes place tonight from 6 to 9 p.m. between 14th and 15th streets on Larimer Square. The splashy, flashy culinary block party, a benefit for the Colorado Symphony, trumpets the temptations of eight Larimer Square restaurants — Bistro Vendôme, Capital Grille, Corridor 44, Cru, Lime, Osteria Marco, Rioja and TAG — all of which will extend their patios off the sidewalk and onto the street, where diners can nosh from prix fixe menus ranging from $58 to $97 per person.
