Smallcakes Satisfies My Sweet Tooth

Colorado Springs Food Guy visited Smallcakes Cupcakery & Creamery located at 7335 Academy Blvd N, Colorado Springs, CO 80920. What a treat--so many cupcakes and so little time! I sampled the Birthday Cake with real sprinkles, Pink Chocolate, and my absolute favorite, the Peanut Butter cupcake made with peanut butter cream and topped with crushed peanut butter cups. The cakes are moist and scrumptious but it is the array of frostings that take your taste buds over the top. The Cupcakery’s atmosphere very quaint and relaxed. The staff is absolutely friendly and the service is top-notch. The owner shared with me that they will be making cupcake infused ice cream very soon. This summer is going to be delectable when ice cream is served up with these amazing cupcakes. So if you have a sweet tooth like I do, stop in at Smallcakes Cupcakery and tell them the Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you.

Soul Food with a Little Southern Comfort in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs Food Guy just visited London’s Soul Food restaurant located at 4747 Flintridge Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80918. I sampled their Memphis-Styled Ribs, potato salad, BBQ baked beans, and sweet potato pie. OMG -- what a treat! The ribs were caramelized to perfection – very meaty and moist. The potato salad was amazing with a hint of mustard. The baked beans had a sweet, smoky taste with bits of beef simmered right in. The sweet potato pie topped off a very good meal. It was very rich, warm, and scrumptious. This restaurant is family owned and operated which makes sense since everyone is so welcoming and friendly. So if you’re in the mood for some southern comfort food, then stop in at London’s Soul Food restaurant and tell them Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you. Come hungry leave happy!

Moon Star II Chinese Restaurant

Colorado Springs Food Guy visited Moon Star II Chinese Restaurant located at 5873 Palmer Park Blvd, Colorado Springs, CO 80915. This is a casual but quaint restaurant decorated with modern Chinese flair. Moon Star II serves most of their dishes family style with huge portions to be shared. They also have single-serve dishes. I sampled the Orange Chicken and the Dieter’s Chicken dishes and they were but delicious. The Orange Chicken is definitely the best I have had in Colorado Springs. The Dieter’s Chicken was a delightful mix of chicken and fresh vegetables steamed to perfection. They put the sauce on the side to reduce the salt and calories. I love this restaurant and highly recommend it. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you are in the mood for some great Chinese food at a reasonable price, then visit Moon Star II.

 

 

Having a Hot Orgasm at Go Fish

Recently the Colorado Springs Food Guy visited Go Fish Sushi located at 1 Broadway #B108, Denver, CO 80203. This is an unpretentious Japanese café where sushi is served up with a casual, sports bar appeal. They also have another location at 2055 W 136th Ave Ste B106, Broomfield, CO 80023. I sampled several of their special rolls. The Hot Orgasm roll is the absolute best with cream cheese and tempura green chili. It explodes in your mouth like—an orgasm.  The Firecracker roll comes at you with a bang with spicy tuna and jalapeño peppers. The Pay roll is delicious with a hint of sweet potato wrapped in tuna. You can bet the Las Vegas roll is also a winner with avocado and kani. Come for the sushi but stay for Happy Hour. Go Fish has an extensive wine and saki selection—the pineapple infused saki is a must have. My host and manager Brian always ensures my staff and I have a great time. If you are tired of same ole sushi, head to Go Fish and let them know the Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you.

Bacon Goodness at Bubba’s 33

Bacon Goodness at Bubba’s 33

Colorado Springs Food Guy recently visited Bubba’s 33 located at 5807 Constitution Ave. Colorado Springs, CO 80915. Although this is part of national franchise, we only have one in the area and it is definitely worth the trip. This is a sports bar themed restaurant with dining options for the whole family. The pizza is tossed fresh and the burgers are monstrous. They have more flat screen TVs than tables, so you won’t miss any game. I had to try Bubba's Bacon Burger. It is their signature dish with bacon and Bubba sauce mixed in the beef patty and topped off with American cheese, Bubba's smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato and onion. What a delight! As you know, burgers are my favorite dish and when you add bacon you know it will be a hit. They claim the beer is always served at 33 degrees. In addition to the food being amazing, our server was very friendly and attentive making this visit a great dining experience. It did not seem to matter how busy the place was, she did not miss a beat.  Refills steady and food hot and fast. So if you are in search of a family-friendly restaurant with something for everyone, stop in at Bubba’s 33 and tell the staff that the Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you.

Tex-Mex to the Max

ColoradoSprings Food Guy recently visited the Sonterra Grill located at 28 S Tejon St, Colorado Springs, CO 80903 which is an upscale Mexican restaurant with American Southwestern flair. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. This menu is delightful and their recipes are outside the box with culinary style. All menu items are freshly prepared. The chips and salsa are served up warm and delicious. However, my favorite dish is the Carne Asada. The beef is tender, well-seasoned and delectable. What sets this restaurant apart is the presentation of each dish – absolutely top notch. At Sonterra Grill, make sure you leave room for dessert and order their Banana Foster. It is flambéed tableside and is so decadent. What a wonderful ending to a night out. So if it is date night or happy hour, make the Sonterra Grill is at top of the list.  

Los Frajoles Mexican Restaurant

The Colorado Springs Food Guy visited Los Frajoles Mexican Restaurant located at 665 S Cir Dr. Colorado Springs, CO 80910. Although this is a franchised restaurant, they are all independently owned and operated. The wait staff is very friendly and attentive. I sampled their fish tacos and the Burrito Grande. The portions are huge and the flavor is outstanding. I enjoyed the burrito as the steak was tender and well-seasoned. The fish tacos were lightly breaded and cooked to perfection. The chips and salsa were divine. They were warm, light, and tasty. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and best of all, very authentic making you feel like you are in Mexico. So if you are in the mood for delicious Mexican food, come on down to Los Frajoles and let them know the Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you.
