Step right up!

We’ve got keto, paleo, locovores and flexitarians, celiac, anaphylactic shock and vegetarians.

This mysterious burg is teeming with an infinite brood of food restrictions. And a sideshow like Boulder Hardies aims to cater to each of them. That’s right: We have gastronomic oddities you’ve never dreamed of.

Gasp in shock at the farm-to-table porcini and lovage!

Ogle in disbelief at the meatless, pea-protein burger imbued with cruelty-free “blood”!

Shriek with terror at $25 cocktails suffused with house-made cilantro bitters!

Step right up!

This spread is not for the faint of heart, no sir, no ma’am. The deepest annals of occult scripture never foresaw the lengths mere mortals would go for organic, vegan jackfruit tacos, served steaming and aromatic out of a nomadic food truck. Pay no attention to that line

Breakfast

Buffaquiles, bloody marys and benedicts Even egg skeptics can’t help but be tempted by Boulder’s morning munchies

By Karen Antonacci Staff Writer have a confession.

I don’t really get breakfast.

I don’t think it’s the most important meal of the day.

The most important meal of the day is the one that comes smothered with cheese at 3 a.m. as you binge Netflix shows instead of doing your homework.

And … wait for it. I don’t like eggs. It’s weird that we crack open something from a chicken’s butt and heat it and eat it. It’s a nonfood texture. I keep trying eggs, trying to figure out why everyone loves them so much and I just ... don’t understand. It’s like Chacos. Why are these popular?

I also appreciate that their breakfast hours last until 2 p.m. to accommodate the morning-challenged such as myself.

If eggs are your thing, I don’t think you can go wrong at Dot’s. They’ve got omelets! They’ve got huevos rancheros! They’ve got traditional breakfast plates with two eggs, bacon and the works.

You want a big plate of saag tofu or chicken masala first thing in the morning?

They’ve got that, too, for some reason. Don’t question the Nepali menu! Just enjoy that gift horse.

Colorado Daily file photo You gotta get up early if you want to snag a coveted first-come, first-served table at Snooze.

Breakfast from page 5 misnomer, because if you actually hit snooze on your alarm, you likely won’t get a table at this popular brunchery before next Tuesday.

No saving seats, either.

They’re a first-come, firstserved place that is incredibly popular with our brunchobsessed generation.

But once you get a table, be prepared to be plied with all sorts of egg benedict, if that’s your thing. The waitstaff is attentive and knowledgable about every egg concoction under the sun, and there are event a few options for the egg-challenged among us.

Snooze is not where you go to get a no-frills-yet-delicious biscuit and gravy plate.

Snooze is where you go to get the Bella! Bella! Benny, which is prosciutto, Taleggio cheese and poached eggs on a ciabatta bun and topped with cream cheese hollandaise, balsamic glaze and … wait for it … arugula.

You’d be a shoo-in on “Chopped” with that dish.

Chase it all down with a Brewmosa (just use your imagination) or a peach bellini, which you cannot — unfortunately — order in an IV drip.

Lucile’s

Where: 2124 14th St.

Cyrus McCrimmon / The Denver Post Lucile’s is the place to go if you wanna eat red beans and rice and listen to some zydeco.

Hours: 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday-Sunday I don’t know who Lucile is, but she’s a goddamned genius. Colorado is proud of its barely-spicy green chile and its overpriced craft beer, but Lucile’s decided to liven up the Wonderbread culture with some creole. *Puts on “Daddy Lessons” and “Formation” by Beyonce to prepare for breakfast.* The Eggs Pontchartrain sounds killer — fresh pan-

fried mountain trout, poached eggs and béarnaise sauce (which is hollandaise sauce’s mean cousin).

Lucille’s also has a variety of other cajun-inspired fare, like New Orleans-style French toast and a creole omelette, along with more standard breakfast items.

Or get the New Orleans Praline Waffle. Pecans are in the batter, people! Sound the alarm. It comes with praline syrup. Good God, man, what

Burritos

Portable perfection in a tortilla

The only thing we know for certain in this world is that we like burritos.

12 • AUGUST 30, 2017 • WELCOME BACK

Explore the area’s offerings or make your own. ¿Por qué no los dos?

By John Bear Staff Writer t was difficult to write this. I started off with a brief history of the burrito, most of which I culled from a Wikipedia article (bad journalism, but good reading).

Then I pondered delving into some Descartian logic about the only thing I know for certain in this world is that I like burritos. It’s true, but why launch into some pedantic, philosophical waxing about it? Just say it.

OK. Burritos are awesome.

They are more portable than a sandwich, and without the burrito, there are no wraps, no hot pockets and no reason to continue living. In fact, the next time I see a matronly Andy Cross / The Denver Post Hispanic woman walking down the street, I’m going to

I

offer her a big hug and say, “Thank you.”

In this particular fantasy, she will hug me and reply, “You’re welcome, mijo,” which every white guy should be called at least once in his life. I also enjoy being labeled a “pobrecito,” which isn’t the most flattering word. I don’t know why. I’m weird.

Anyway, there are plenty of burritos to be had in Boulder County. You can hit up the unfortunately named Illegal Pete’s at 1124 13th Street; Chipotle, 1650 28th St.; or QDOBA, 1625 28th St. for Mission-style burritos.

It’s probably not cool to say this, but the beefy five-layer burrito at Taco Bell is good and a steal at $1.59. Fill up.

It’s OK. A little soylent green

Burrito

from page 12 never hurt anyone.

The Safeway grocery stores in Boulder offer bland yet arguably tasty breakfast burritos on Saturdays and Sunday for about three bucks. They actually use pretty high-quality meat in the ham variety.

You have to get there pretty

early, but there’s a nice lady at the 28th Street and Iris location who will run to the back and grab you one should you arrive a little late.

I lived in Longmont before drifting into Boulder like a literary Henry Lee Lucas, and you should get out of Boulder occasionally to broaden your horizons. That’s what college is all about, after all — experimentation.

14 • AUGUST 30, 2017 • WELCOME BACK

Lewis Geyer / Longmont Times-Call Holga Espinoza prepares Santiago’s famous breakfast burritos in Longmont.

Las Palmeras, at 199 Main St. in Longmont, has a large offering of burritos, tacos and tortas, and a second location.

Santiagos, 215 Main St., makes a decent and cheap breakfast burrito. They also have chicharrones, the crack cocaine of bacon. Try it. The chicharrones, not the crack.

Federal Boulevard, which will take you all the way to Denver, has about 5,000 Mexi-

can restaurants lining it once you get south of U.S. 36. So if you are feeling adventurous, steal a Subaru and hit one up.

If you are living in a dorm, this might be kind of hard to pull off, but you can make your own burritos. Find a heavy pot — a dutch oven is great — and brown about a pound and a half of ground beef. Add some salt and garlic.

Chop up an onion and add

that and simmer. Chop up a potato and add that. Buy a pint-sized carton of frozen New Mexico green chile, thaw it out and drain it and add it to the mix. Let the whole thing simmer about an hour, and roll it up in burritosize tortillas with grated cheese. You’re welcome.

Caramel. Quesadilla.

Or go for some more traditional fare like eggs benedict, skillets or buffaquiles. Wait, what was that last one? Chile con carne, cheddar, two basted eggs, sour cream and guac on a crunchy bed of tortilla chips smothered in pork green chili. Besides the eggs, it sounds like everything I love on one plate.

They’ve got 99-cent mimosas, tequila sunrises and bloody marys, too!

The menu also has vegetarian options for those not into snacking on tasty animals, as well as some glutenfree items if thoughts of wheat fill your gut with intense dread.

Alas, you are likely to wait for a table, with long waits common on weekends. It’s worth it, though.

Pizza

A few of Boulder’s nicest slices There’s a lot of pie in this town, and that’s a lot of good news

By Christy Fantz Staff Writer nyone who doesn’t like pizza, come here. For those who can’t see, I’m grabbing them by the ear, shoving them inside a circus face-hole cutout thingy (the scientific term) and hurling pizza pies at their face in rapid succession.

Like I’d do that. What a sad waste of pizza. Instead I’ll just side-eye mad-dog you while I fold New York-style slices in half and shotgun them faster than a beer.

Pizza is the nuts and bolts of a college student’s diet (nuts). Roll home after bombing a final? Order a pizza. Wake up with “poop” written on your forehead in

Sharpie? Get a slice (and cut some bangs). Take the wrong bus after a night of partying, and end up walking 16 miles home because you can’t figure out how to download Lyft? Pizza (and a technology class). Bingeing on “Degrassi: The New Class” (you would) instead of writing that 20,000-word paper?

PIZZA. Here are some pizza joints to check out around town.

Eat at local shops instead of delivery chains — you won’t be disappointed.

It’s a daring trapeze ride for the curious carnivore and gluten-free glutton. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a feat of super-sized proportions. You cannot miss this chance to experience the sweetest pies and spiciest roes.

Burgers

Open wide for these beefy bad boys Where to find Boulder burgers worth unhinging your jaw for

By John Bear Staff Writer heeseburgers are the primary reason I’m likely going to die in my late 40s — that and the quasi-poverty and stress-related gunshot wounds that accompany being a journalist.

But it will totally be worth it. Burgers are juicy and delicious, even if they are loaded with cholesterol and the commercial production of meat — unless PBS is lying to me, and I have no reason to believe they are lying to me — is contributing to the destruction of the environment.

I watch Frontline on PBS sometimes when I’m looking for reasons to selfexit the mortal coil — fortunately, I get lousy television reception in my apartment — and it apparently takes 1,800 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of grain-fed beef. That’s a lot of water for four quarter pounders.

But as I said, my burger love and chosen profession has increased my mortality

Food after dark

Sate that late-night craving You’re not a gremlin (right?); you’re allowed to snack after midnight

By Alex Burness Staff Writer s I have always said, it’s really important to eat food every day.

Sometimes when I was a kid growing up in Cleveland in the mid-’70s, my mom used to be like, “Clean your room!” or “I swear to god, you better get the hell out of my face so I can focus on my work.”

And I always used to respond by telling her how important it is that she and every other human being access key nutrients on a daily basis.

Without them, I’d tell her, humans can literally die.

Did you know that? Few Paul Aiken / Staff Photographer people do, but it’s true: If you Cosmo’s Pizza is tucked into that colorful, angular building on the Hill, just across from campus. To promote never eat food, you will evenyour own long-term vitality, make sure to eat food on a regular basis.

A

tually shut off.

In order to make sure that never happens, I recommend eating constantly. All day, every day. Pick the most caloric grub you can find and fill your lil tum with the good stuff.

One of the challenges, though, of taking this approach to food consumption is that many purveyors of food stop serving after a certain hour. These people are slackers and American disgraces — but I won’t get into that now.

Anyway, the late-night dining options in Boulder aren’t many, but they do exist. Here’s a rundown of a few choice eateries for the midnight nutrient-hunter.

Gluten free, vegetarian and tasty If you have special health or ethical food needs, Boulder has you covered

By Amy Bounds Staff Writer hink sticking to a glutenfree, paleo or vegan diet means you’re stuck making your own meals while your friends are out feasting in Boulder’s restaurants? Think again.

In a town like Boulder, you have all kinds of options.

Most places now will make accommodations, swapping a hamburger bun for lettuce for those avoiding carbs or the beef patty for a veggie one for those who don’t eat flesh. But Boulder also offers restaurants that cater specifically to those who follow special diets, whether that means no animal products, no nuts or Colorado Daily file photo no gluten. Want to eat hyper You can find paleo-friendly dishes like these bacon-wrapped stuffed dates at Blooming Beets in Boulder. local? Boulder’s got you covered there, too.

Every single thing on the menu is 100 percent plant-based. Nothing is out of bounds, which can be incredibly refreshing for those used to limiting themselves.

Indulge in traditional French fries or their sweetpotato cousins without worrying about what’s in the oil.

Don’t worry about the tempeh in your Baja Blackened Tacos even sharing a grill with meat products.

And speaking of that tempeh, Native Foods has the biggest range of soy-protein nonanimal products in town, with house-made tempeh, seitan, “chicken,” “bacon” Native Foods Cafe and nut cheeses.

Oh no! You’re missing a finger. How did that happen?

Well, being a writer isn’t a very profitable job. I just got hungry. Here’s a life tip, kids: You don’t see people studying business or engineering eating their own digits.

That astronomer friend who owes you $100 has discovered the large “Planet X” just beyond Pluto’s orbit.

She offers you naming rights to get out of debt. What’s the name that’ll go in future textbooks?

Our “new” ninth planet will be called Especially Not Pluto. So now, whenever kids make solar systems out of white Styrofoam and ping pong balls for class projects, they’ll write, “Here are the planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Espe-

cially Not Pluto.” Future couples will ask, “Where’d you like to go for space vacation?” “Especially Not Pluto.”

You wake up to a string of epithets shouted in a familiar voice. Gordon Ramsay is pacing in your bedroom, and he won’t go away until you cook something worth his time. What dish can you make to appease him?

First, I’d tell him to relax with the finest lager my apartment has to offer: Busch Light. As he’s chugging, I’ll heat up some SpaghettiOs, mix in some kale and pickled jalapeños while topping it off with two sunnyside-up eggs. I call this dish, S’il Vous Plait Arrêtez de Parler (French for: Please stop talking).

After years of research and maniacal laughter, you’ve finally created a terrifying hybrid of plant and animal. It’s alive! Dear god, what have you done?

Behold, the Venus frogtrap, a plant with a mouth and a tongue. The little ones catch mosquitoes, while the big fellas go for pigeons.

When they get bigger ...

You’ve managed to slip a subliminal message into every iPhone on the planet.

How will you know when it’s

Courtesy Casey Freeman Just look at this man’s joie de vivre, graceful posture and impressive chopstick skills. It’s a good thing he’s chilling in Chicago this month, or you know he’d steal your girl.

People stop using phones in public.

Bear from page 38 What new musical genre will take over the charts in 2018?

Nuclear Holocaust Pop. Turns out I was wrong about the performance art thing.

It’s a cat/ficus. Basically a lazier ficus with a worse attitude.

subliminal message into every iPhone on the planet.

Everyone stops using iPhones. Peace. And. Quiet.

At. Last.

Centuries from now, only five words remain legible on your grave. What are they?

“Meh, His Brother was Worse.”
