(3) Netflix movie We watched that is underrated- The outsider with Jared ledo, He plays An American soldier imprisoned in postwar Japan enters the dark world of the yakuza, adopting their way of life in repayment for his freedom. (Rotten tomatoes only gave it 1 star but we were entertained)
(4) Denver restaurants you should try :
- The Preservery – locally owned, farm to table goodness, their cocktails are on point – Try their not your uncle’s carrot juice gin cocktail and they also bake the most delicious bread & if you like fried chicken, go for lunch and try their sandwich or dinner has some damn good chicken wings.
- Cart Driver – also locally owned, pizza place inside a shipping container complex, Cart Driver’s is amazing in it’s ability to put out tons of hand tossed pizza to a large crowd in the space the size of 2 shipping containers. They make craft batch cocktails, so drinks are smooth and go down fast. I am not a mousse person either and their chicken liver mousse was insanely delicious.
