It Looks Like Sputnik!

We ate at Sputnik a week or 2 ago. I've been there in a bar sense, usually just meeting up with some people and ordering a Coke. We decided to try the grub, it's quite good. After an obscenely long wait (45 minutes for some sandwiches?! Come on!) we got our food. I had the vegetarian Vietnamese sandwich. The fake pork wigged me out because on the menu it says tofu, but it's actually some of that crazy fake meat you can only get at your local Asian store. I also had a couple of bites of the homemade veggie burger which was also good. To top it off the sweet potato fries are delicious. They are fried perfectly crisp and come with a delicious dipping sauce. Barring the wait, everything was flavorful and original.

Recently I also hit Sushi Sasa the Riverfront/Platte/? area of Denver. While the sushi was decent I also had a ridiculously long wait for my food here. 50 minutes for a few sushi rolls? Seriously?! Seriously. There were 5 sushi chefs and only 4 tables at the time. If I wasn't there on a business meeting I probably would have left. Difference between Sasa and Sputnik: Sputnik has a small kitchen. Sasa has no excuse. Oh well, I must have some kind of restaurant curse. We'll see how this week's adventures go.
