"When it opened in an 1880s iron foundry on the edge of downtown in 2013, The Source food hall signaled a sea change for the former industrial zone that would blossom into Denver's RiNo Arts District. Five years later, the historic brick complex welcomed an attached 100-room hotel, done up in polished concrete and Baltic birch, with Japanese soaking tubs and a rooftop plunge pool. Today, the twin “market halls”—one in the original building, one in the new tower—house various food stalls and design shops, plus a barbershop and a florist. Standouts include Reunion Bread Co., where baker Ismael De Sousa turns out incredible Venezuelan- and Portuguese-inspired pastries (try the golfeados, walnut-studded sticky buns topped, improbably, with cotija cheese), and Safta, an Israeli stunner from James Beard Award winner Alon Shaya." - Megan Barber, Nicholas DeRenzo
