Boulder, Co

I have only been to Boulder a handful of times. My first time, in 2008, I traveled with Ryan and Z-Trip for a show at Fox Theater for my birthday. Ryan flew me out to spend time with him since my birthday conflicted with the tour schedule. Sweetest guy on the planet, right?

Yesterday was my first day actually exploring Boulder and seeing what’s really there. Our friends picked us up and took us to this really neat coffee shop, Boxcar Coffee Roasters. First, they roast all of their coffee in-house. Then, they grind the coffee per order and then heat it up using lab beakers and burners. Lastly, they service it to you on a bamboo platter.

After that, we wondered around downtown and did some window shopping. I was a good girl and didn’t buy anything. Except a latte from Boxcar.

Lastly, our friends took us to a yummy restaurant called The Kitchen. I enjoyed the French Toast with pecan and caramel sauce. Yum!

Just as we were leaving town, I snapped this picture.

    Yes! The Kitchen is so good!! I’ve never been to the Boxcar…I wonder if it’s a new addition since I finished school, cause lord knows I hit up all the coffee shops when I was there!

      I *think* he said they have been open for six months.

      I enjoy the lattes at Crema Coffeehouse in Denver more but Boxcar’s setup and feel is really neat.

      The Kitchen was awesome!
