Iguana Mexican Grill

Iguana Mexican Grill has been around for a very very long time. They used to have a location on Western, but moved to the 16th street location way back when I was in Middle school (maybe highschool). I remember going her almost every tuesday in Highschool for taco tuesday and would always stop in whenContinue reading “Iguana Mexican Grill”

Spicy Meatball Subs

Who doesn’t love a good meatball sub? These remind me of my childhood and I haven’t had one in years to my recollection. They are delicious and messy and it is hard to eat just one. This version isn’t necessarily kid friendly, unless your kid likes spicy – but you can easily omit the crushedContinue reading “Spicy Meatball Subs”

City and State

City + State is one of OKC’s newest restaurants! It opened just a few weeks back and is a great place to grab Sunday brunch, happy hour drinks, or a nice dinner. They have a beautiful downstairs dining area and a great open patio upstairs along with a bar and lounge areas. It has aContinue reading “City and State”

Proper Fish

Fish and Chips is normally synonymous with Europe, usually the UK to be more specific. Most of us probably can’t travel to Europe whenever we want for some delicious fish and chips and let’s be real, there are not a ton of places in the US that make them well. And chances are if youContinue reading “Proper Fish”

Sweet Cow

Sweet Cow is a local ice cream shop with 6 locations in and around Denver. Each location has a slightly different menu with a few flavor swaps. Apparently each location is allowed to make flavor unique flavors of their own, which is cool! We went to the Highlands location because they had a Lucky CharmsContinue reading “Sweet Cow”

Kale Cauliflower Bowl with Tahini

We all love kale, right? LOL definitely not….there are not many dishes with kale in it that I have honestly enjoyed. I can probably count them on a single hand and the majority are in the form of a caesar salad with only a portion of kale actually in it. But kale doesn’t have toContinue reading “Kale Cauliflower Bowl with Tahini”

Metropolis Coffee

Metropolis Coffee was a happy surprise. While we were waiting for our table at Denver Biscuit Company, we took a stroll to grab coffee – my friend mentioned there was a shop a few blocks from DBC and I am always down for coffee. Upon entering this shop, it was clean with lots of naturalContinue reading “Metropolis Coffee”

Spark

Spark is the newest restaurant to grace the OKC food scene! It draws you in with their bright pink fries and rainbow theme! They opened very recently and are located in the very cool Scissortail Park in downtown OKC. I went the day after their opening around lunchtime and the line moved quickly, as wellContinue reading “Spark”

Stem Cider

Not a beer fan? Stem has you covered – no beer here, cider only! This is a cider lovers paradise with so many different flavor offerings and you can even do samplers if you can’t decide. This cider heaven is located in the RiNo (River North) district of Denver tucked away from the street. TheyContinue reading “Stem Cider”

Cochino Taco

If Denver does one thing right it is tacos! They have a plethora of taco spots and that is a great thing for me because we all know that tacos are like my number one favorite food. This place has two locations – one in Englewood and one in Denver – we explored the DenverContinue reading “Cochino Taco”
