Back in 2020, Boulder’s Black Cat Farm hosted a series of acclaimed farm dinners which sold-out as soon as seats were available. After four years of construction and permitting battles, Black Cat dinners are back at chef/farmer Eric Skokan’s 500-acre organic homestead. Reservations for fixed price feasts are being accepted at blackcatboulder.com.

Taste of the Week: Coffee cubism, no tips
Moe’s Broadway Bagels deserves a shout out for serving their cold brew coffee with ice cubes made from coffee, not water. They don’t dilute the brew! On a recent visit, I also noticed that Moe’s no longer offers the dreaded tip screen. Employee wages have been raised. A tasting note: Moe’s now offers breakfast sandwiches made with latkes — potato pancakes — instead of bagel halves.
