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
Alek’s Amazing Christmas Lights
I wouldn’t normally post the contents of an email to my blog without permission of the author, but I’m quite certain Alek Komanitsky would approve. I just got this email from Alek, who is a local geek and Ultimate Frisbee player: For the many that have asked (and those that haven’t yet), the Controllable Christmas… Continue reading Alek’s Amazing Christmas Lights
Google Maps is cool
Google Maps just keeps getting better. In addition to having a feature where you can see what a building looks like from the street, they now have business reviews submitted from readers like me. I’ve written a few reviews of local businesses, and you can see them here. This is in addition to my restaurant… Continue reading Google Maps is cool

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
