Laudisio dining review: From classic to contemporary
The menu at Laudisio is as expansive as its vast dining room in the Twenty Ninth Street Mall, and depending on a person's mood, one could splurge on a fancy multi-course meal, grab a quick and cheap bite, or dabble in a few small plates for an Italian taste fest. Full Story

High quality, low on the food chain at Leaf
Food can be extraordinarily political, and Boulder is well known for healthy residents who strive to eat organic, locally produced, low-impact foods. Leaf helps that effort without smugness or a superiority complex. Leaf could grandstand on the philosophy of the "Omnivore's Dilemma" while patting itself on the back for its success. Instead, the restaurant simply cooks good food well.  Full Story

Nepal Cuisine review: Left us energized and renewed
It was a sincere pleasure to rediscover Nepal Cuisine. On average, a dinner for two with drinks and plenty of food cost $40, with a tip. Better yet, the food was flavorful and healthful and left us energized and renewed. For too long, I imagine Nepal Cuisine has been a local favorite and remained lesser known to greater Boulder. Diners would be well-served to seek it out.  Full Story

Twisted Pine Big Shot Espresso Stout review: Beer like a coffeehouse
I love coffee and I love stouts. And when they're combined correctly they lift one another to new heights that they couldn't on their own, taking palates to new heights with them. Full Story

Canned beer: Dispelling bad can-notations

Eat Out: Boulder restaurants and dining (July 23)

Sushi Matsuri review: Lyons sushi spot won't replace your favorites
Perhaps the best part of the meal came at the end with the Mochi ($4.50), a serving of three small scoops of ice cream surrounded by rice cakes. Delivering a texture entirely new, and a light, sweet flavor (green tea and mango), this dessert was a wonderful portion with a refreshing taste. Full Story

Beer review: Great Divide's 15th Anniversary Wood Aged Double IPA
I was hooked after the first sip. The malt flavors and aromas were incredibly rich and complex, making me think of freshly baked bread, molasses, brown sugar, roasted nuts and chocolate-covered toffee.

The Hit List: Red, white and blue (not blow) it up
Celebrate Independence Day right this year by hosting a barbecue (or crashing one). There's nothing more all-American than a backyard shindig. Throw in some cheesy clothing, booze and fireworks and you're either in for a blast, or, uh, a blast.

Restaurant review: Boulder's Rib House
About five years ago, a friend got married outside of Austin, Tex. and served the guests barbecue: messy ribs, potato salad, corn bread, the works. It was a quirky, yet memorable, choice. And it was recently on my mind as I sauntered into the Rib House, Boulder's iteration of the iconic Longmont barbecue joint.
