Raw oysters and IPA
Boulder is awesome, both during the day and night. I'm glad they've sent me to entertain the Chinese guests. We're staying at the Boulderado, which is right in downtown Boulder and a couple blocks away from the happenin' Pearl Street. Today we went through the art fair and checked out the farmer's market. With a high of 101 degrees, even those umbrellas from China weren't enough to keep our guests cool, they ended early to take a nap.
I felt a little bored sitting in my room watching TV and "Over the Hedge" (good movie) so I went out for a little drinky myself. I found a nice place called Boulder Cafe and odered a pint of locally brewed indian pale ale and a doze of fresh raw oysters. The IPA was perfect for the warm evening, crisp and hoppy. My Chesapeake and Kumamoto oysters were phenomenal, they were so fresh that I could taste the difference in each of them.
Sitting outside in the warm evening air while drinking locally brewed IPA and slurping down some fresh oysters and watching a street show makes really makes this a nice vacation. Too bad I don't have any one close to share my oysters with, more for me I guess.
