Well, it's too soon to say if it warrants a spot on this list but I've been in Aspen for all of 12 hours and have had 2 amazing meals.
Lunch at Ajax Tavern started w/ truffle fries...OMG, why doesn't everyone offer this?!?!
Dinner at Pacifica. I ordered the seafood cocktail and scallops w/ foie gras. The seafood cocktail was HUGE. Layer upon layer of shrimp, scallops, calamari, crabmeat and....wait for it....avocado...Amazing. I could have stopped there but then my entree (actually my 2nd "small plate") arrived. Scallops, mushrooms and foie gras. Party in my mouth.
Fantastic meal. Wonderful service...the waiter stood at our table for at least 20 minutes listening to very poorly delivered Boudreaux/Thibodaux jokes. Priceless. I have a feeling we'll go back again on this trip.
I can't imagine it getting any better but I'll let you know....so far, damn good!
