This past week Matt and I did something Coloradan by participating in Denver's 5280 Restaurant week! Last year, we learned about this cool deal after it was over, so we made sure to take advantage this year. For those who are not natives, 5280 is a magazine with all the top rated places in Denver. They have the best restaurants, hair salons, and even dentists! I know because our dentist was actually rated by them. :)
For 5280 week, all the expensive, snazzy restaurants have specials on their menus for a dinner for two at $52.80! This is a really great way to eat at places we could never afford otherwise.
So we decided to try out a Brazilian steakhouse called Rodizio Grill in downtown Denver. It was a really cool loft building and so fun!
This was really Matt's first choice, because they serve all kinds of meat on skewers right at your table! All in all, we tried 21 rotations, with 19 different meats. Yum! We tried everything, including the the Chicken hearts! Yep, they were pretty tough and chewy...not our favorite. Everything else was sooo good.
This was Matt's favorite, as you may have guessed. :) Mmm..so good, but after eating a dinner of almost all meat, I think we need a week of fruits and veggies!
Overall, we had such a fun date night trying new things. Now we can't wait for next year...especially since it will be my choice! Anyone else go out somewhere fun for 5280?
