Back in the winter, before the global pandemic spread, we had a very special visitor in town… Michelle’s mom Suze! We travelled out to Dillon to see the ice castles and then we stopped for dinner at BeauJo’s in Idaho Springs. What is BeauJo’s known for? Its Mountain pie or Colorado Style Pizza and a…

Restaurant Shenanigans: Poke City
Remember when it was super easy to go out and eat at a restaurant with friends. Now it’s a little more difficult. I’ve been waiting to post a restaurant review for a bit because it just made me sad to look at the happier times of life, but here is a place that you can…
Restaurant Shenanigans: The Dolphin (Hawaii)
Hello out there! Honestly, Hawaii feels like it was a million years ago now, but I realized that I never did get the chance to talk about some amazing sushi Haris and I enjoyed on our trip! From Coronavirus to some big changes at my job things have been a whirlwind since we got back….
Restaurant Shenanigans: Cherry Cricket
Wow. The past few weeks have been the strangest weeks of my life and I’m sure they have been pretty strange for all of you too. It’s been really hard to want to write a blog about food or restaurants when in reality we can’t really go anywhere and the grocery store shelves are still…
Restaurant Shenanigans: Puka Dog
When you think Hawaii you don’t think hot dogs but if you don’t get a Hawaiian style hot dog, you will be really sad. Haris and I hit up Puka Dog in Poipu, Kauai this past week on a recommendation from our friends Ali and Ilene. We typically always follow their recommendations because they love…
Restaurant Shenanigans: Sushi Katsu
I’m currently in Hawaii… eating the freshest fish… but I still wanted to share my go to sushi place in Denver. Now you see, I’m originally from Las Vegas… yes, one of the best culinary places in all the land, so when i moved to Denver I was a little bummed about the sushi situation….
Restaurant Shenanigans: Red Rooster- Harlem
Up next in the recap of our recent New York City trip eats is a little restaurant that Haris picked out in Harlem: Red Rooster. The place itself was rather nice. We didn’t make reservations which led us to being seated in a very odd corner, next to a booth, but off to the side,…
Restaurant Shenanigans: Milk Bar
Alright… back to NYC foods! One of my favorite places to get dessert in NYC is Milk Bar. Now I want to add a couple disclaimers here: 1) I have only been to the little kiosk type Milk Bars never to the actual standalone shop itself; 2) I’ve only had the Milk Bar Pie (once…
Restaurant Shenanigans: Rocky Mountain Cheesery
To round out this week of cheesy goodness, we have one final blog and its a gouda one! Once a month we have a food truck come all the way out to the middle of nowhere (Franktown, CO) and finally offer us something other than food from one of the three restaurants or the biker…
Restaurant Shenanigans: Momofuku Noodle Bar
I finally made it to one of the restaurants on my bucket list! Momofuku Noodle Bar in New York City! In 2019 I became obsessed with David Chang, the creator of Momofuku, through the various Netflix series he hosted or appeared on. So when Haris and I knew we were heading to NYC right around…
