Yesterday, I had a few friends over. I didn’t feel like cooking for them, and wasn’t too excited about the usual fast-food or carry-out options. So we settled on ordering some pizza for delivery. I’d just gotten a flier from Pudge Bros. Pizza, so we decided to give it a try. We ordered two pizzas,… Continue reading Pudge Bros. Pizza

Taqueria el Fogoncito (Longmont)
I finally got a chance to try this taqueria in north Longmont. I’d seen it months ago, while driving through town, but didn’t stop. It’s not fancy, by any means, but what real taqueria is? It’s basically a fast food joint, with a couple dozen plastic booths filled with Mexican families. The menu is all… Continue reading Taqueria el Fogoncito (Longmont)
Mumtaz Mediterranean Food (Lafayette)
I finally got a chance to eat lunch at Mumtaz, the Mediterranean restaurant in Lafayette. I’d seen a sign on the side of Highway 287 several months ago, but I guess I just don’t get to Lafayette very often around meal time. And actually, I was planning to drive up to Longmont to try out… Continue reading Mumtaz Mediterranean Food (Lafayette)
Taqueria mi Barrio
Update August 7, 2010: A few months ago, this restaurant closed down for remodeling and reopened as Habanero’s. Update February 24, 2008: The name of this restaurant has changed. It used to be “Tacos Tamayo” and is now called “Taqueria mi Barrio”. The cook and menu are still the same. —- I was in the… Continue reading Taqueria mi Barrio
Taigun
Taigun is my favorite sushi bar in Broomfield. That’s not saying too much, I suppose, since we’ve only got maybe four places in the whole city to get sushi. But hey, being first out of four is sure better than being last out of four! Taigun is located near the FlatIron shopping mall, not far… Continue reading Taigun
Down to One – Bananelope Cafe
As I write this, I’m sitting in the Starbucks at Highway 287 and Miramonte. It’s pretty much like all other Starbucks, of course. The one just happens to be closest to my house. Why am I here? Well, I couldn’t find any other coffee shops open today. I had thought we had two non-Starbucks coffee… Continue reading Down to One – Bananelope Cafe
Burritos to Go
I’d heard good things about this little burrito shop, and decided to try it out tonight. It’s in a little cluster of shops just off Sheridan north of Midway that I never knew even existed! Most of their menu is burritos, as you might expect, though they also offer tamales and tacos. As you can… Continue reading Burritos to Go
Pho Galore
A couple years ago, when the three pho restaurants opened all within a block of each other, I thought, “What were these people thinking? This can’t last. Broomfield’s never even had one Vietnamese restaurant, and suddenly we have three! I’m sure one will win out over the others and the other two will be out… Continue reading Pho Galore
3 Margaritas
Even though I really like eating at tiny “hole-in-the-wall” type Mexican restaurants, I think my favorite Mexican joint in Broomfield is 3 Margaritas. I’ve been there twice in the past couple weeks, and probably eight or ten times before that. On the last visit, I went with my wife and my mother. They both ordered… Continue reading 3 Margaritas
Buenos Tiempos
My wife and I live very close to this restaurant, which is why I wish I liked it more. Buenos Tiempos is an old time Broomfield tradition, a Mexican restaurant that existed long before we moved here and therefore longer than any other Mexican restaurant I know. Their menu is a mix of “Mexican” food… Continue reading Buenos Tiempos
