Culinary Colorado: The Ultimate Food Lover's Guide: Dining, Bakeries, Food Festivals, Cooking Schools, Gourmet Groceries, Wine Stores, Fa

We just came back from a visit to our son in Colorado. We happened upon Culinary Colorado and used it as a basis for our own food adventures. Walter never went wrong in anything we checked out. We especially liked the selections in a little Italian deli in Durango that we never would have found or considered on our own. Get it and use it!

Walter goes outside the boundaries of most ordinary guidebooks and brings a touch of panache and her own personal taste to this yummy guide of Colorado restaurants, cooking schools, food festivals and more. Her bias is against "chains" so readers are pointed towards off-beat places they might never find on their own. What makes this book so fun is it's lengthy reviews and backgrounders into the culinary places and people of the state. Definitely a book to have on your shelf if you spend a lot of time in Colorado and like to eat.

We didn't know there were so many culinary adventures in Colorado. The author has researched the state well. We learned a lot about some of our favorite places and also discovered some new ones.
