Denver’s 26 Most Iconic Dishes

"Sure, it’s touristy, but this Morrison property — which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places — actually does have something entertaining to say about the evolution of Colorado cuisine. Its signature appetizer platter includes not only Rocky Mountain oysters (yes, bull testicles) but also bison sausage and bison tongue, plus peanut butter–stuffed and pickled jalapeños, guacamole and chips, and two dipping sauces for good measure." - Gigi Sukin, Ruth Tobias
