Boulder Farmers market food court What’s great and what sucks
Jun 20th
We finally tried everything at the Market in the food court. Tammy’s Vietnam noodle bowls with meat is excellent. So are the dumplings from the Vietnamese lady just up from Tammy. Fast Eddies hot dogs are so so, not as good as when Eddie owned the stand. Laudisio’s oven pizza is good. Boulder ice cream is excellent, not overprice, just the best. Mod market is just what it sounds like….. a social media hype..not great.sucks. The tamale stand is very good. The falafel stand is terrible, over priced, tasteless, little swarma, not much content, mostly cold pit bread….Cold! Just awful! You can’t go skimping in Boulder. The early morning Muffin guy muffins are good ( knew a cat named muffin ) ask for the tri-athlete muffin , our fave with blueberry and banana.
So our number One choice is Tammy’s Vietnamese stand with lot of great fairly priced cuisines. Service is fast plus you get plenty to eat.. The ice cream stand is number one for desserts. You get a nice big bowl for $3 and a huge bowl for $4. The ice cream is extremely good too.
Conor O'Neill's for lunch …… not a grrreat choice
Jun 15th
We had the Shepard’s pie for $11.00. It tasted just like Dinty Moore Beef Stew. Yum. nuff said? The Cheese burger was tasteless, dry and not that great either. We liked Smash Burger and Lark Burger better and we really didn’t like them all that much. We did get sick after Conor O’Neils lunch so all in all it was a classless crappy meal for a total of $27 bucks.
The outdoor deck was a pit and the inside needs to be painted. We know it is a favorite of many locals and certainly when you’re drunk on your ass who the hell cares. But we are in search of great Boulder lunches.
Il Pastaio lunch buffet to die for
May 26th
Here is a lunch buffet first suggested by one of our 800 @eatmeboulder twitter followers. Alice then suggested it, so there we went. For $8.50 this is another killer perfecto Italian buffet in Boulder. The lunch menu changes daily. Today, they had 3 different types of lasagna, fresh statued string beans, or any one of 7 vegetables of choice. The cooking is excellent old school northern Italian fare. The husband wife owners are from Italy. Italian customers came in while we were there. Italian music played softly in the background and there were pictures of Italy on the walls. A painting of the tower of Pizza sets on an easel to greet you in the entrance. So score this one an A. However, they do use Styrofoam plates and plastic forks which we don’t mind…considering this place is all about the food, but we would like a little stiffer plastic fork.
