  • The List: Best hotel restaurants

    Every Tuesday through the end of March 2009 (when we unveil the Best of Denver 2009) we'll be posting a list of some of our favorite Denver dishes/restaurants on Cafe Society. Have a request? A comment? Post it below. Jason Sheehan just reviewed Elway's Downtown, which he says is no fun at all compared to the original Elway's in Cherry Creek. But there are plenty of other hotel restaurants where you can have fun -- and good food. Following are a half-dozen of our favorite hotel resta

  • Veggie Girl: O's Steak and Seafood

    Being a vegetarian sometimes means feeling like you're always a bridesmaid and never the bride. Sure, that gnocchi entree is delicious, but meat eaters who go to to Italian restaurants get to order both primi pasta dishes and secondi meat dishes for a full three- or four-course meal. I've always wanted to try molecular chef Ian Kleinman's creative cooking at O's Steak and Seafood, but as the restaurant's name implies, the menu there is geared almost exclusively toward carnivores. Still, I kep

    Ian Kleinman is cooking with gas -- liquid nitrogen -- at O's.Steven Shaw, founder of egullet and a serious food-world heavyweight, was in town this month for the International Association of Culinary Professionals conference, and he somehow found time to take a spin up to Westminster to check out Ian Kleinman's molecular gastronomy menu at O's Steak and Seafood. I've been infatuated with the place since day one, and have long held up Kleinman as one of the true innovators in the field.  Bu

    It would be impossible to repeat all the nice things that egullet's Steven Shaw had to say about Ian Kleinman and his molecular gastronomy menu at O's Steak and Seafood at the Westin Westminster, which Shaw experienced when he was in town for the International Association of Culinary Professionals convention. Shaw and I spent a long time chatting about Kleinman's menu. There were jokes buried in those four or five or six plates that no one in Shaw's party got until the next day (Kleinman's star

    Ian Kleinman, a trained professionalGermany is now short one chef and the science of molecular gastronomy has claimed another victim. This, from the Daily Telegraph: "The 24-year-old chef was experimenting with a recipe involving liquid nitrogen, which is used by chefs including Heston Blumenthal to freeze food, when there was suddenly an 'enormous explosion.'"Said "enormous explosion" apparently blew one of the guy's hands completely off and so damaged the other that it had to be amputated once

    Looks just like real bread, doesn't it?​ While I am not generally one for hyping the cause of vegetarian-this or vegan-that, there has always been something about the art (yes, art) of vegan and gluten-free baking that has tickled my geek bone. It's the same instinct that makes me love the molecular gastronomy menu done by Ian Kleinman at O's -- the notion of taking something that ought to be impossible (like brulee-ing balsamic vinegar) and finding a way to make it happen.
