Mizuna Denver: StringGirl haute cuisine in Denver

StringFellow with the mixologists concoction, Mezcal Smoke Bank
Having the chance to eat at one of Denver's hottest spots for Gastronomy was certainly a high point of November. Mizuna is one of Chef Frank Bananno top rated restaurants in the Mile High city, in fact it is one of the highest rated cities in all of Western US.

Mizuna has an intimate dining room, which gives the feeling that one is eating in a private dining room, almost homey. But the food served was by no means what I would expect as home cooked food, unless you were a first class chef. The Bar is very inviting and the mixologist provided first class cocktails from their list, but also welcomed the challenge to provide new palette for drink tastes (we had something they called a "Peanut Butter and Jelly Old Fashioned" with special home-brewed simple syrup from distilled Peanut Butter with house made muddled fruit serving as the jelly).

Our experience at Mizuna was absolutely top notch, with great food, drinks, and atmosphere. We can most wholeheartedly recommend taking the time to make a reservation and dine there, it is well worth to take the opportunity to enjoy dinner there.

Moonrise Kingdom, a cozy craft beer bar in Tokyo-Shinjuku

Craft Brewing is not what normally comes to mind when people ask about Japan. They'll ask if you like raw fish (there is more to Japanese cuisine than Sashimi or Sushi), or they'll comment about Sake (there is more than just rice wine in Japan); but if you look, you will definitely find some. Our recent trip to Tokyo, this April just after the Sakura had been swept away by rain :-( we were able to find a perfectly suitable refuge for the Craft Beer Lover.  Moonrise Kingdom(via their Instagram) StringGrrl with one of the NEIPA/Hazy IPA on tap from Japanese Craft Breweries As a treat, the owners shared an American Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing out of Colorado Local ExPat who gave up their stool to make room for StringGrrl and Kam Carryout beer from Kyoto Brewing Company, Vertere

everything you wanted to know about my accident but I wasn't ready to share  (u pdated 28th February. Done, gone home, Scroll to see more ) Here's the lowdown since curiosity abounds: 1) NO, I didn't have a skiing accident. I resent the implication. I owned that fucking Hill . (Family Friendly video) 2) It was a sled 🛷 . It's not an extreme sport. It's called a Rodelbahn (toboggan road) and is considered fun for the whole family. Sebastian supplied the sleds/toboggans, and after a full morning on the mountain skiing. We planned to use the few remaining hours of lift access to run the Rodelbahn. Totally reasonable. 3) The run isn't like a luge or bobsled but a trail down reasonable slopes (switchbacks adjacent to a green dot, blue square ski run) but maybe a bit narrower. Rodelbahn at Nauders 4) I think I over-steered at the exact wrong time and was catapulted into the trees, and down a steep slope, bounced off many trees, broke a few d...
