The tastiest tidbits we tried in Denver lately
With local restaurants facing tough times, we're kicking off a new series spotlighting some of the most delicious dishes we've devoured lately.
Why it matters: We want to support the spots that bring something good to the table.
Here are our picks:
🍤 Alayna: My new obsession is Shrimp Daddy Burgers, a food truck serving juicy, craveable Cajun-inspired shrimp patties. Their concept is unique, they nail the execution, plus their name is gold.
Get the Hot Daddy — it's shrimply the best — and don't skip the waffle fries.
🍕 Esteban: I recommend stopping by Cart-Driver's reopened LoHi location, which has a much more relaxed and familial atmosphere than its RiNo counterpart.
Start with the flavorful burrata before trying the perfectly charred clam sourdough pizza.
🥙 John: My go-to takeout option these days is Boychik Kitchen with locations in Aurora and Boulder. Try the golden beet toum and the chicken shawarma plate for a healthy and satisfying meal.
