Restaurants: 2013 in Review

January 2, 2014  •  Restaurants

I can’t tell you how often people meet me and ask me what my favorite restaurant in Denver is. Or how often I can’t answer that question. It’s not that I don’t love certain places, it’s more that I love so many restaurants and so many chefs. First I’d have to narrow down type of cuisine – Italian, Asian, farm to table? Then I’d have to think about types of restaurants – from fine dining to food trucks. And then I’d still probably give you several restaurants that I love. Although I can’t name one favorite, I thought you might be interested to know some of my favorite spots that I dined in 2013 – mostly in Denver, a few in other places – by month!
