Denver: Basic Kneads Pizza truck

2 Comments
Our final stop at the Denver Art Walk was the Basic Knead Pizza truck.  The truck is a converted FedEx truck with a wood burning oven.
The truck can make pizzas to order, but unfortunately you can only get a 10″ pie, not by the slice.
We picked up two pies: a Margharita & “the Wise Guy”: Olive oil, Mozzarella, Sausage & Rosemary.

Denver: Stick Food

After leaving Crock Spot, we found Stick Food. We picked a medley of items to take back to the hotel:
Waffle with nutella  (on a stick), Angus beef and chicken, and Mashed potato balls.

Denver: Crock Spot

While wandering around the Denver Artist Walk, we spotted Crock Spot at an art gallery.
The concept for Crock Spot is simple.Pick a grain. Pick a meat. Pick a sauce.

Karen selected couscous with chicken and mushrooms. We also took a jalapeno beef over barley with chipotle & chimichurri back to the hotel.

Normally I don’t post this, but it was easier to explain the arepas this way

Nestled at the edge of Denver’s Art District at 200 Santa Fe is the only indoor Farmers Market. I also found El Caribe Venezuelan Arepas.

Arepas are handmade bread and can be enjoyed by itself or stuffed.

Beckie & Igor suggested the Pabellon, which was stuffed with stewed shredded beef, seasoned black beans, sweet plantains, & cheese. I had that, while Karen ate the Queso, the arepas stuffed with mozzarella & plantains.

The duo will be launching a truck very soon. Be sure to follow them at @queroarepas.
