This week Gretchen Kurtz reviewed Harman's eat & drink, a restaurant inspired by Mark Fischer's Pullman in Glenwood Springs that takes a cue from its Cherry Creek location, too. Mark Antonation visited a classic steakhouse on Federal Boulevard, the Columbine Steak House and Lounge. For Chef and Tell, Lori Midson talked to Ben Davison of Bistro Vendrome, who spilled the beans on the ingredients he's obsessed with and more. And our Restaurant Roll Call for October tracked the dozens of openings -- and handful of closings -- on the dining scene last month.
