2023 Colorado MICHELIN Bib Gourmands

"The location in a run of the mill strip mall belies the cool interior at this spot named for Chef/owner Chris Teigland's mother. Inside, dark charcoal and dark wood are offset by pops of bright colors, while overhead, vibrant lanterns of different colors and sizes draw attention. The kitchen delivers serious flavor on their noodle/ramen-based menu. Kick off with a sweet and savory skewer of marinated tofu skewer served with a miso peach jam and an almond and sesame candy crumble. Ramen options run the gamut from miso bacon and brothless versions to the death wish designed for spice hounds who want the heat without sacrificing flavor. Sweets worth saving room for include the sweet crispy rice cake with smoked caramel and kasu-lime ice cream." - MICHELIN Guide
