We have to admit we’re guilty on this one, but we like to think we do a pretty good job at pretending. Last year, Jenn Wohletz from Westword wrote that our corned beef hash was the best she’s ever had.
We’ll go ahead and take her word for it, and you should too. Our recipe of freshly ground corned beef brisket, onions and diced potatoes is served with two basted eggs and three of our buttermilk pancakes. So this St. Patrick’s Day, we invite you to come get your day started with the best breakfast in Denver and embrace the Irish heritage you may or may not have been born with. Sláinte!
