Colt & Gray in Denver's Riverfront Neighborhood is a great place to meet for a cocktail...right Stephen?
Monday, March 26th, 2012 at 1:26pm. 267 Views, 0 Comments.
I must admit, since I began this blog feature, I have had tons of offers to join me on my adventures. It's done wonders for my social life and made me feel pretty popular. Plus, I get to spend time with some great people! My friend and client, Stephen, met me out at Colt & Gray in Riverfront to celebrate the purchase of his new home and catch up. He's offered to be my wing man on further expeditions and I'm looking forward to our next outing.
Restaurant/Bar: Colt & Gray for bunch, dinner or happy hour
Location: 1553 Platte Street #120, in Denver's Riverfront neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Upscale, swanky and only the slightest bit pretentious.
What to Drink/Eat:
As a thorough enjoyer of happy hour, I was excited to…
Taqueria Patzcuaro in Denver's LoHi serves up authentic Mexican fare!
Monday, February 13th, 2012 at 5:31pm. 402 Views, 0 Comments.
If you follow this blog, you know that I have a special couple of friends who call ourselves the "Tuesday Night Supper Club." It's not exclusive and we don't always get together on Tuesdays and maybe I'm the only one who calls us the "Tuesday Night Supper Club" but it's one of my favorite groups of people none the less. We met last night to try out Patzcuaro's in Denver's LoHi neighborhood as I've heard folks rave about it. Now I know why. We had a blast! One of our members will be leaving us for San Francisco. We're sad that he won't be joining us as often but we must carry on. There's an open seat if anyone wants to join us!
Restaurant/Bar: Taqueria Patzcuaro for lunch, dinner or happy hour

Lunch in downtown Louisville at Zucca...a culinary treat!

I love venturing out of Denver to our amazing surrounding communities and taking in the local fare and flare. Downtown Louisville is one of my favorie destinations for these such trips. I met a fellow agent for lunch at Zucca to discuss the state of the market, how things are going and generally catch up. I'm so glad he suggested this place! What a treat!
Restaurant/Bar: Zucca for lunch, dinner or happy hour
Location: 808 Main Street, in Denver's Louisville neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Laid back, relaxed and homey. Warm servers, authentic decor and amazing aroma had me thinking about lunch for days!

I told my lunch date that I had a craving for a giant bowl of pasta and that is just what I got! I…

Dwell Denver Real Estate recently celebrated it's 1 year anniversary, the addition of Eileen McNamara and a new office space by hosting a happy hour at Caveau Wine Bar in Uptown!
Restaurant/Bar: Caveau Wine Bar for lunch, dinner or happy hour
Location: 450 17th Ave., in Denver's Uptown neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Laid back, relaxed and homey. We took over the couch area and had plenty of room for all of our guests.
What to Drink/Eat:
We ordered one of each appetizer and were impressed by the variety of bruschetta and the meat and cheese platter. Obviously with the words "Wine Bar" in the title, they knew what they were talking about. All I or any of my guests had to do was describe what they generally like to our server…
An afternoon at Panzano in downtown Denver...from guest-blogger, Renie Stag Smith
Monday, January 23rd, 2012 at 1:05pm. 625 Views, 0 Comments.
I got to spend a wonderful afternoon with a dear friend from my home town, author and radio show host of "Life and Other Matters" Renie Stag Smith, recently. She is thinking of moving to Denver so I thought I'd show her a really good time and take her to Panzano, downtown in The Hotel Monaco. My other dear friend, Elise Wiggins, is the executive chef and she created a meal for us that blew me out of the water. The next time you have an opportunity to dine downtown, please, for the love of God, go to Panzano. It is the most decadant dining experience I've had in this city. I thought it would be fun to capitalize on Renie's wordsmithing and asked her to recount her experience. Here's what she thought about the afternoon:

Top 10 things to love about Denver's LoHi Neighborhood
Thursday, January 19th, 2012 at 10:18am. 929 Views, 0 Comments.
If there is a neighborhood that is creating a ton of buzz these days, it's LoHi. Situated between the popular Highland neighborhood and Downtown Denver, this place is drawing a crowd. LoHi, how I love thee, let me count the ways...
1) The Pedestrian Bridge - Connecting LoHi to Downtown Denver, this gorgeous bridge spans I-25 and provides residents access to Commons Park, Confluence Park, the Cherry Creek Bike Path, Riverfront and is just blocks to the 16th Stree Mall.
2) The History and Architecture - After the 1846 flood of Cherry Creek, a wave of residents and new immigrants moved to higher ground and began settling what is now LoHi and Highland. LoHi has a very eclectic mix of exciting modern architecture along side historic Victorians…
Prepare yourself for some higher learning at downtown's hip hang out, Euclid Hall!
Monday, January 16th, 2012 at 5:33pm. 329 Views, 0 Comments.
After a hilarious comedy show at Lannie's Clocktower Cabaret, just several blocks away, my friends and I walked over to Euclid Hall to continue our night on the town!
Restaurant/Bar: Euclid Hall Bar and Kitchen for lunch, brunch, dinner or happy hour
Location: 1317 14th Street., in Denver's Downtown neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Super cool! Located in a historic 1813 building at 14th and Larimer, it's open feel, high ceilings and upscale/industrial deco compliment the high-end pub food and amazing drinks they serve. The brainchild of the same ladies who have brought us Rioja and Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall won't disappoint.
What to Drink/Eat:
Thankfully I was there with a bunch of hungry folks. I got to try something…
You say beer and pizza, I say Hops & Pie! After trying this Berkeley neighborhood joint, you'll see it my way!
Monday, January 9th, 2012 at 2:53pm. 1227 Views, 0 Comments.
This blog feature has been so fun for me. Anytime I get the chance to meet a friend for lunch I always suggest something new so I have something to blog about. What a good call that was when I chose Hops & Pie in Berkeley. Big win!
Restaurant: Hops & Pie for lunch, dinner or happy hour
Location: 3920 Tennyson St., in Denver's Berkeley neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Nothing fancy. Just your run of the mill pizza joint with a nice long bar to house all that beer, several tables and a very friendly server. It was pretty quiet for lunch but I could imagine it getting a little rowdy for happy hour or later in the night so maybe I'll have to come back for that!
What to Drink/Eat:
I had a pint of pumpkin ale, the slice of the…
Highland Cork and Coffee is one of Highland's gems!

I lived just down the street from this adorable little coffee house (which has the excact same floor plan as my house up the street) for many years and watched it grow into the coffee, wine, music-loving community space that it is today!
Coffee Shop: Highlands Cork & Coffee for coffee, snack or live music
Location: 3701 W. 32nd Ave, in Denver's Highland Neighborhood
The Atmosphere is:
Cute, cozy, quite and lively all at the same time. The patio is one of my favorite places to work on a warm day. I'm excited to check out some live music next time I can make it happen. The service is OUTSTANDING. I haven't experienced much like it at a coffee shop. No pretense, just friendly folks working hard to…
Jezebel's to take over the space left by The Squeaky Bean in Denver's LoHi Neighborhood
Friday, December 16th, 2011 at 1:28pm. 728 Views, 0 Comments.
For reason's beyond their control, The Squeaky Bean had to abandon their location at 33rd and Tejon, next to Rosa Linda's, in June. With them, they took our hearts, but not to fear, Bean Lovers, they'll be back. More on that in a minute.
Filling this void is a new restaurant called Jezebel's. Jezebel's, a southern concept from husband and wife Scott Durrah and Wanda James. The couple isn't new to the Highland neighborhood either, as they used to own 8 Rivers, which is now home to Venue. Durrah told Westword that he hopes the restaurant will have a Cheers feel, commenting that "It will be one of those places where you can come in four, five times a week and get something different." Jezebel's is slated to open sometime in June.
