Cracovia Polish-American Grill
Today I had lunch at Cracovia Polish-American Grill. At least I think that’s the name. I’m still not totally sure what the exact name of this restaurant is. The menu says “Cracovia – Your Family Restaurant – A Taste of Poland.” When I arrived, about 12:30, there were three other groups of people there. Two… Continue reading Cracovia Polish-American Grill
Welcome to Sprouts Farmers Market
I just found out some exciting news! Broomfield is getting a real natural supermarket. It’s not Wild Oats / Whole Foods, or even Vitamin Cottage. It’s Sprouts Farmers Market. Supposedly they’re opening in October next to Staples near (or in, maybe) the now-defunct Albertson’s on 120th. I’d never heard of Sprouts before, so I had… Continue reading Welcome to Sprouts Farmers Market
Proto’s Pizzeria Napoletana
Broomfield now has our own Protos. If you’ve never been, Protos is a local chain of pizzerias. I’ve visited the one on Platte in Denver and the one in Lafayette, and so Beth and I decided to try the new Broomfield location on their opening week. Protos does what they call “Napoletana Style Pizza” which… Continue reading Proto’s Pizzeria Napoletana
superior canal dehiscence
Today I took the day off work for a couple reasons. First, my parents needed someone to take them to the airport at an ungodly hour. I got up at 4:26 AM in order to drop them off at 5:45 AM, so they could catch a plane for Africa. So I decided that since I… Continue reading superior canal dehiscence

new theory about my ears
(The above photo is an MRI slice of my head. This picture shows that (a) I do have a brain and (b) that I don’t have a tumor. If you know just where to look, you can see my left and right superior semicircular canals.) Those who have known me a long time know that… Continue reading new theory about my ears
India’s Grill
Can you believe Broomfield now has not only one but two Indian restaurants? As of three months ago, we’d never had even one (as far as I know) and now we have two! I already reviewed Buddha’s Indian Restaurant, and my wife and a couple weeks ago we just went to the other new one,… Continue reading India’s Grill
Heaven Star Seafood Dim Sum Coming Soon
The Armadillo Mexican restaurant in Broomfield went out of business a few months back. H.K. is a Chinese guy I work with, and he’s from Hong Kong, the world center of dim sum. He told me he heard that a dim sum restaurant was moving in there, and I was so excited! You see, ever… Continue reading Heaven Star Seafood Dim Sum Coming Soon
