You never know what you might find cruising down East Colfax, but along with hookers, drug dealers and their desperate, drugged out disciples, you can usually count on new restaurant signage. Pisco Sour, a new Peruvian restaurant, bar and club at 8501 East Colfax Avenue, opened in June to good…

Someone in the kitchen is obviously obsessed with squiggles of Mexican crema, but that same person is also dead set on delivering far better than average combo plates, like the one in the above snap, which includes, among other usual suspects, a chicken enchilada and a chimichanga zigzagged with a…
