Great new Apothecary in town! Not to mention an incredible herbalism school…read more I just finished the 500 hour herbalism program and it was such an amazing experience. Kim, Sharona, Emory and Martin are super knowledgeable and make the time spent in class fun too. They had to scramble this year to make an online program, in the middle of our class (when Covid hit), and I have to say, Bravo! They didn't miss a beat. It was my lifeline through the lockdown and my class became very close. The curriculum is superb and well rounded. The gardening weekend, medicine making, plant identification and the retreat were the highlights for me. It's so cool to see how the plants work and truly help heal people, like they have for thousands of years. You will leave this school feeling inspired to change the world, one person and one plant at a time.

I came across this biz because the owner, Jolene Collins, ran a crowd funding campaign to gather money to buy her supplies. in exchange for my three $20 donations to her campaign, I was sent six jars of her jojo's sriracha. My set of six consisted of 3 different batch numbers which is super neat because each of these batches are hand-made! Per the hand written letter I received with my shipment, each batch has a slightly different flavor so I can't wait to try all three! I cracked open a jar from Batch No. 008. My friends have asked me how it compares to the Rooster Sriracha sauce that everyone is familiar with and I say this: - All natural ingredients - Almost all of the ingredients are organic - The flavor is more garlicy and spicy IMO - This stuff is hand-made You can find this lovely chili sauce throughout New York or you can order it online at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/loveofjojo

Even-though I went there as they were right about to close I didn't feel rushed out. I love supporting family owned businesses and it was clear that the brother and sister running their store took pride in what they had. Their vegetarian burrito was delicious, it paired nicely with the Raspberry Italian soda that I had. I love their selection of coffee beans, it's the only place in town that has such an assortment. Great pricing and such a nice feel at this location. Next time I go in I'll be trying their turkey focaccia sandwich. Yum...

I've purchased so many coffees, lattes, ground coffee and beans from here and it's always very well done and high quality. I must say, though, that they completely fail when it comes to my new favorite drink, London Fog. I've tried three (two from the hospital location where they were both massive failures) and one from the Garrison Street location. Even that one was bad. I will be going elsewhere for my London Fogs now. It would be a great idea for Village Roaster to do some recipe research and bump up their quality of this Earl Grey tea based drink. It's becoming more popular in this area and other coffee shops do a great job with it.

I grabbed the cloud matcha and was in heaven. Each sip I was sad to drink, since it would mean the experience would be over soon! It inspired me to try and make a cloud matcha, but I couldn't match this level. Truly a phenomenal spot, try it out! It's a bit out of the main **since this happened, I've made multiple cloud matchas. I judge greatness by my desire to recreate a food item/drink on my own-and I did this one. Wonderful drink

Holy smokes, this place has a hold on me. Specifically their espresso tonic. Hands down one of the…read morebest 'spro tonics in all of Denver! I knew of this place, but had never been until the new year began after it was recommended to me by another Yelp Elite (shout out Caroline!). From the outside looking in, you might not know this is a coffee shop. Very minimal signage from 38th. However when you walk in, you are greeted with smiles and a warm welcome almost instantaneously. They brand themselves as an Indonesian specialty coffee shop. I think it's cool that they've have a special Lunar New Year menu. And their pastry game is top notch, sourcing from heavy hitters like GetRight's and Banh & Butter. But for me, I can't help myself from ordering their espresso tonic. They pair the espresso with a coconut yuzu tonic, with a hint of vanilla, and a dried lemon wheel for garnish. It's sweeter than what I typically enjoy, however it's so damn delicious and refreshing! OBSESSED. It normally gets crowded in here, with plenty of people like me working remotely on their laptops. The owners are also extremely nice and have been behind the counter every time I've been. Coffeegraph has quickly risen to the core of my coffee shop rotation! I hope you give 'em a try!

There is something about this chocolatier that stands out from others. Is it the ambiance? Or is it…read morethe kinds of chocolate products they make? Not sure. When I found Bibamba while I was at Edgewater Food Hall to get me a plate of Ethiopian food, I stumbled up it by accident. The kind lady who was manning the register inside was above and beyond while I was sampling different types of chocolate barks along the window shelves. She explained to me that the store opened about three years ago. Really? I am pretty sure I had come here within that time frame at least once. I guess I had missed this place out of ignorance. Well, I, at least, discovered it. This is a Colorado store which imports cacao beans from Cameroon as the owner runs/owns a farm in the African country. Per the information board on the wall, the farm sustainably sources everything. I certainly appreciate businesses that focus on social responsibility. The chocolate bark samples I tried were all exquisite. After tasting, I walked around a bit to take some photos of the interior. Yes, this store is quite different than other typical chocolatiers for sure. You'll have visit it and see for yourself. The glass showcase upfront had truffles, cakes and parfaits all nicely displayed. The decadent looking cake or the parfait were tantalizing. Unfortunately, however, they were a little too big for me. Hence I decided to go with several pieces of the small chocolates as they all were of a good size. I got me two truffles and one chocolate piece. And they were.... -Black Forest Buzz Truffle -Cinnamon Roll Truffle -Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Including tax and tip, all came to less than $14. Quite decent, I thought. I enjoyed all of them but my absolute shout-out goes to the Black Forest Buzz Truffle. It was so good where I wanted to go back to the shop immediately to get me another one. Yes, I agree. As the store name says it all, this is an artisan chocolate shop. The skills and techniques they use to create those outstanding chocolate pieces are high-quality, one-of-a-kind goods that are distinguished from others. You won't taste something like this in those mass-produced ones sold at the store we go to daily. Bibamba simply became my absolute favorite chocolatier that day. The only complaint? It's not very close from my southeast Denver house!!!

Here is why you should go here: - Small family owned and run…read morebusiness. - All Cacao comes from their 56-acre farm in Cameroon (Central Africa). - No slave labor used at all. - Only the finest ingredients used. - Everything they make and sell is organic and sustainable. Took a chocolate truffle making class and learned all about chocolate production and chocolate making. The owners are passionate about their chocolate, and it shows. First, we started with a presentation with photos of their farm in Cameroon and how they harvest, ferment, and dry their cacao beans, followed by roasting, winnowing (removing shells), and grinding into "cocoa liquor". Then bagging in 150-pound bags and shipping directly to their warehouse in Colorado. From here, their employees mix with sugar/milk and make the most organically rich and pure chocolate. It takes about a week in the melanger (mixer) for the cacao and sugar to blend into smooth, rich and creamy deliciousness. In the hands-on portion of the class, we took some of their 50% cacao and made dark chocolate truffles, rolled in a large variety of toppings--dried strawberries, pink sugar, pistachios, cookie crumble, peppermint. Of course, we all went home with lots of tasty samples to share of (eat alone.). Very interesting, tasty and fun. Their store is worth visiting as it is absolutely beautiful with numerous products on display. If you like chocolate or have a chocolate lover in your close circle --then you need to stop at Bibamba and get some chocolate love. Fun fact: Bibamba also provides their special chocolate confections to the very best restaurants in town. Finally, this class was brought to us by Slow Food Denver, a non-profit, committed to the enjoyment of local food, and who seeks to create a more just and sustainable food system. Slow Food Denver values cultivating community and connection, restoring biodiversity, celebrating food cultures, defending social and economic equality, and protecting the environment.

For some reason, Sprouts milk spoils faster than any other brand we've bought. Consistently. We stopped buying it. Their ready-made meals are often quite good. Their sushi is basic grocery store sushi, despite being made in store. Their baked goods is surprisingly spotty. They think donuts are unhealthy, while super-sweet muffins are healthy. Umkay, Sprouts. Even their staff are wildly "spotty" in performance; I've had outstanding help, and I've been completely ignored as if the staff member was stone deaf. Is Sprouts worse than the other, larger, supermarket chains? Nope. Is Sprouts better than them? Also nope.

Also, they're cooking utensils. where they've got wood utensils. I'm switching over from plastic to more natural forms of cooking utensils. It's a slow replacing process, but I believe in the toxins and plastic really affects our body. The vegetables are better quality and there's a lot of variety. Overall, there's so much in the store. Check it out, dedicate more time to explore. Kids will love this market. Service can sometimes feel rude. It's just a language barrier. Have patience and ask a better way. May you me well

I want to start by saying the wait staff and kitchen staff are incredible. Every interaction I've…read morehad with frontline employees has been positive. They work hard, care about customers, and do their best in what are clearly difficult conditions. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for management. From what I've seen and experienced, management consistently makes poor decisions, shows little regard for employee well-being, and creates working conditions that drive good people away. These choices have resulted in harm to the business in its entirety. Their wine list is constantly changing not because of choice, but because their ordered stock is always late or poorly done, and it's noticeable to those who were regular patrons of the restaurant. Let me be clear: I returned to this restaurant as a regular purely because of the frontline staff's amazing team. I've slowly watched the team dwindle entirely due to poor management. It's genuinely disappointing to watch such a strong team of employees be undermined by leadership that refuses to listen, adapt, or take responsibility. This restaurant could be something special if management treated its people with the respect and care they deserve.
