The end of May means the return of our running series spotlighting some of the tastiest tidbits we've tried lately.
Why it matters: Good food should be shared!
Here are our picks:
🐟 Alayna: The miso-glazed black cod at Matsuhisa in Cherry Creek has been on my mind since my first bite. Its caramelized crust gives way to a buttery, flaky interior, striking a scrumptious balance between sweet and savory.
🌮 Esteban: It's an odd pairing, but the taco de mercado at Uptown's Xiquita Restaurante y Bar includes a duck fat-cured ribeye slice topped with cilantro and French fries wrapped in a freshly made tortilla. It's a tasty spin on a traditional taco.
🍄 John: Major Tom in RiNo makes a mushroom tartine with smoked maitake and burrata on toasted sourdough. It's a fancy, umami-rich toast that is just the start of an amazing meal.
