We had a great time on our downtown Boulder Sushi Crawl, tasting unique rolls at four establishments paired with sake. And, we picked up some proper etiquette along the way. Do not rub your chopsticks together. When not in use they should be placed parallel to yourself on the holder (if there is one) or
There’s officially a reason to visit Vegas! Hexx, a bean to bar chocolatier, has a chocolate factory in the hotel Paris. Forget the casinos, forget the mediocre celebrity restaurants. Check out this chocolate factory. Now, “factory” might make you think of a large production space. Hexx is small. They’re a small-batch chocolatier, so expect to
On a recent visit with my fellow Dames d’Escoffier, I enjoyed a guided tour and tasting of Epic Brewing in Denver. This Utah brewery opened a Denver location in 2013 where it brews a lot of beer and has a large taproom. In Utah, it was the first brewery since prohibition to brew exclusively high
The fast casual Denver dining scene is now home to Hopdoddy Burger Bar. As I was recently in Austin, I thought I’d check out the original Hopdoddy.

We proudly feature Piece, Love, and Chocolate on our tours at least twice each month and feel so very fortunate to live in a town that indulgently adores our independently (female) owned chocolate boutique. So, when reading about The Chocolate Cartel in the local EDIBLE magazine while on a recent culinary excursion to New Mexico,
Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year, so there’s really no excuse not to go out. If you’re not sure where to go, we at Local Table Tours compiled a list of some of our favorite date-night dining spots in Boulder and Denver. These aren’t necessarily ranked in any order.

At age 13, on a ski trip to Steamboat with my family, I declared one night while out to dinner at a steakhouse that I was going to be a vegetarian. At first my parents laughed it off, but over a few months, then years, it was clear I was vegetarian. And I must say,
Thanksgiving is upon us and I was hired to prepare a feast for one of my client’s family this year. The first thing I decided was I’d prefer a local bird to a Whole Foods bird. As I’ve never purchased a local bird here in Boulder, I asked Lynne Eppel of Edible Front Range for
