EAT + DRINK

Sushi Den + Izakaya Den - Brothers Yasu and Toshi Kizaki founded Sushi Den in 1984. Known for some of the freshest fish in Colorado and consistently, award-winning cuisine in Denver. They also host "Chef’s Table" which is meant for adult “Foodies” who are open to all types of dishes. The Chef selects the Best of the Daily Catch for these private dinners. Your private Chef creates a unique meal and includes a curated Sake pairing.

Quiero Aprepas - These guys started as a food truck at the Pearl Street farmer's market. Arepas are a corn based flatbread that dates back to the Timoto Cuica tribe in Venezuela. Gluten free, so always a favorite for me. They now have two locations - Platt Park and also in Avanti in the Highlands.
