TRY THIS WEEK: The Larkburger @ Larkburger
LARKBURGER. 2525 Arapahoe Ave., Boulder, 303-444-1487, larkburger.com
WITH ALL THE kerfuffle surrounding In-N-Out’s recent arrival in Colorado — people reportedly waited in line 14 hours to place an order — we thought we’d skip the chaos and revisit what many consider the Centennial State’s entry into the fastcasual burger wars: Larkburger. We ordered the classic Larkburger — a one-third-pound black Angus beef patty cooked to order, placed atop a chewy bun with lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickle and a mustardy house sauce. What more could you ask of a burger: the meat patty is crisp and lightly charred, but so juicy on the inside; the toppings are all fresh; and the fries are substantial. And if you’re looking for something extra, add truffle to your burger, fries or tots; it’s right there on the menu.

Chop5 Salad Kitchen opens in Boulder
Food truck park and cidery coming to Louisville THE ROSE & RAVEN, a cidery and food truck part, is coming to Louisville and will be located just off South Boulder Road. The Louisville City Council recently approved the project, and the tax incentives for it. The project includes several slots for food trucks, deck and patio seating, a tavern/food hall and a 2,000-square-foot cidery. The project is run by Corvus Nidus LLC with collaboration from EVG Hospitality — the group behind Raglin Market in Gunbarrel, the Rossonian in Denver, and other hospitality spots throughout the country. Check back with Boulder Weekly for more details, including an opening date, when they become available.
