A few things I did this week…..
Parker – A listener suggested I try Perfect Time Café, 10471 South Parker Road. Loved it! Met Mary Flores, the owner. Huge three egg omelet with hash browns. Breakfast, lunch, dinner.
Denver – Lunch at Jimmy’s Jersey Street Café, 9th and Jersey. Tenderloin sandwich with home made pasta salad. Owned by Jimmy Lambotos, LONG time restaurant owner, operator. Lunch and dinner five days a week, brunch on Saturday and Sunday.
Denver – The Porchetta House, 1510 Humboldt. Radio station GM had tried it. I didn’t even know what porchetta is. Hard to find, Ask for AJ, the owner.
Hadn’t been to a Jamba Juice in awhile. Stopped by, got a smoothie, but found out that they serve acai bowls. Going to try one soon. Love acai bowls.
Viewhouse Centennial – Had our Restaurant Show Book Club meeting this week. Joned by Colorado author, Peter Heller, and featured an interview with David Baldacci. For lunch I had the two-for-$13.99 meal deal. Nice side salad followed by cheeseburger. Next meeting is Wednesday, March 26. Everybody is welcome.
What am I reading? Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard have a new book, Confronting the Presidents. A brief, five or six pages, summation of each president. Gives you a history, but also lots of human interest and personal stories about each.
South Broadway – While driving, I saw a new Manning’s Steak House. Original is on West Alameda, and does a great job. Will get to this location soon.
Just read Blood and the Badge by Michael Cannell about two rogue NYPD cops. Interview coming up with Michael this weekend. If you miss it, check out the podcast. Inviting Michael to appear at the March book club meeting.
2025, The Year of the Caller – Just some of the restaurants that have supplied gift certificates to give away to on air callers include Butchery Steak House, Paravicini’s Italian Bistro, Capriotti’s Sandwich Shops, Billy’s Old World Pizza, more. Taking a lot of on air calls in both Colorado Springs (studio line 719-388-0391) and Denver (303-696-1971).
