A couple weeks ago we went to the Boulder Farmers Market with our friends, Zoe and Mark, and their lovely children. I wanted to share some beautiful photos taken by our friend, Mark, of Metroseen. Their business, Metroseen showcases local businesses via beautiful and engaging videos, then puts them all in one place. The local…
Restaurants
Nepal’s Cafe, Estes Park, CO
Yesterday we decided to beat the heat down here in Longmont, and take a day-trip up to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. It’s only about a 40 minute drive. I’m sorry I don’t have a photo of the food at Nepal’s, but we left the camera in the car, and then picked it…
Cheese Importers, goat & sheep cheese, tea, jam, houseware & more
There is a European style marketplace in Longmont, CO that is so cute I want to eat it up. Cheese Importers has a refrigerated room, which houses the best collection of sheep and goat milk cheeses* I’veever seen. Started in 1976, Cheese Imports is local family business, which is now run by son, Samm (below),…
Oscar Blues unfriendly to gluten free diners
UPDATE: When Oskar Blues first opened its restaurant in Longmont we were excited (see old post below). However, we won’t be going there anymore. We visited September 17th, and found the management had recently decided to do away with its gluten free menu labeling. Servers were completely unhelpful when we asked about whether the old…
Le Peep in Longmont, CO + Outrageous Grains gluten-free waffles…
It’s a beautiful thing. Jeff at Le Peep in Longmont, has teamed up with Pamela, of Outrageous Grains (formerly titled Aunt Kay’s Gluten-free Creations), and what a treat it is. Just look at this waffle… I can hardly explain how insanely good this waffle is. Fluffy inside, crispy outside… Completely out of this world. My…
Udi’s Restaurant Cafe, Stapleton (Denver), CO
Yesterday we decided to use the Denver Museum of Nature & Science membership that the grandparents gave us for Christmas -woohoo! And since we were in the area, we thought it was the perfect day to try out the gluten-free menu at Udi’s Cafe in Stapleton. Many of you may know and love Udi’s already,…
Gluten-free Cardamom Pancakes, Annapurna’s World Vegetarian Cafe, & Chef Prakash Jagadappa
Yesterday morning, before we left Albuquerque, we went back to Annapurna’s for those gluten-free pancakes I mentioned. “Two gluten-free cardamom pancakes grilled golden and smothered in mango sauce. Garnished with toasted almonds and coconut.” I was so excited to try them, since gluten-free pancakes are a rare find at a restaurant. My expectations were high,…
Annapurna’s World Vegetarian Cafe *the* place to go gluten-free, casein-free & refined sugar free, in Albuquerque
Outside Annapurna’s on Silver St, Albuquerque. Beautiful. (inside was beautiful too by the way) The girls and I got the special. OMG. Local gluten-free penne pasta, spinach, pepper, mushrooms… I’m so exhausted from the drive today from Tucson, that I can’t remember what else, but it was the most amazing food. Andy got the North…
Tucson Tamale Company, AZ
We couldn’t wait for lunch today, at the Tucson Tamale Company. Guys: Everything there is gluten-free. And there are some crazy good vegan choices too. Here is the founder and owner, Todd, and I. We talked about featuring one of Todd’s recipe’s here, on The Spunky Coconut, and also possibly in a future cookbook (by…
Gluten-free lunch in Santa Fe
We really fell in love with Santa Fe. I felt like I was in another country. I took some pictures of the area, but none of them did it justice. The landscape, vegetation, adobe… it was so beautiful. For lunch, we asked some locals where to get some good Mexican food, and they suggested Cafe…
