Cafe Society served up eleven Guess Where? contests during the holidays, which spread over two weeks — and that means that we’re giving away two of the brand-new 2014 EatDenver dining decks, a fat pack of terrific deals that entitles the holders of those cards to receive $10 off a…

While Table to Tavern, a new restaurant group that’s a partnership between the owners of Pour Kids (Boone’s Tavern and HandleBar Tavern) and Paradigm Restaurants, the crew that owns Table 6, continues to put the finishing touches on Atticus — their first joint restaurant concept that will open in February…

When the weather outside is frightful, there’s usually nothing more delightful than a bowl of homemade soup. This easy offering is packed full of goodness — spinach, purple potatoes, chickpeas and more — and coconut cream and spices give it a gorgeous finish. And the recipe is also both vegan…

In an effort to shelter myself from this weekend’s cold snap, I darted into this charming neighborhood restaurant that serves brunch late into the day, snatching a table near the warming fireplace, where I chased away the bitter cold with a plate of housemade corned beef hash, the kind that…

On January 2, we posted our Restaurant Roll Call for 2013, listing the hundreds of restaurants and bars that had opened in 2013 — and the dozens of restaurants and bars that had closed. One of those that shut its doors: Cebiche. No, not the Cebiche on West 32nd Avenue…

It’s been a tough few months for Phil Goodlaxson, owner of Corvus Coffee, who took on a new space at 1740 South Broadway, just two blocks from Corvus’s original home at 1947 South Broadway — and then had some challenges getting that location open. But on Friday, he revealed that…

This week in Cafe Society, Gretchen Kurtz reviewed the downtown outpost of Pizza Republica that opened last May, which had okay pasta but delicious pizza. Lori Midson talked to Lou Ortiz, executive sous chef of Los Chingones, another restaurant that opened last year, about his Spanish roots, his use of…

The 404 Club was one of Denver’s last true dives — and now Jerry Feld, the man who bought a bar at 404 Broadway before he was old enough to have a liquor license and then ran it as Club 404 for six decades, has passed away after an illness…

Nectar House, a raw, vegan cafe and elixir bar, just opened inside Kindness Yoga on South Broadway — which means when you’re done exercising your body, you can refuel it with all kinds of healthy fare here. We sent photographer Brandon Marshall to visit the new place; get a taste…

Back in October, when I announced that a new Thai restaurant –Thailicious — was opening in Edgewater, I also recounted a weird incident that occurred when I came face-to-face with Ramon Garcia, the restaurant’s rather odd general manager, whose suspicious nature resulted in an ID check. Garcia, not surprisingly, is…

When this tiny Thai joint first opened, the curries were laced with jabs of heat and pronounced flavors, but for some inexplicable reason, the kitchen has gone the way of the cupcake, unleashing super-sweet curries that leave a coating of sugar on your palate. Can you guess where I’m eating?…

Yesterday Jonathan Shikes poured out his list of twenty of his favorite Colorado craft beers from 2013. And like many of the brews themselves, some readers found the subject matter very refreshing. See also: 20 of our favorite Colorado craft beers from 2013…

Hundreds of restaurants opened in metro Denver in 2013, including spots as ambitious as Old Major and Beast + Bottle, and others as formulaic as several Dunkin’ Donuts that, along with Voodoo Doughnut, had this town rolling in dough. Some of the restaurants that opened in 2013 also closed in…
