This is a great Indian restaurant in an unsuspecting location. The classics like tikka masala are great and we really love an eggplant dish called the biagan bharta.

Neighborhoods

This is about a 15 - 20 min walk from our place depending on your stroll. So many cute LOCAL restaurants and shops. It's a great place to grab a coffee, stroll for some gifts, and see what the cats are doing through the window at the cat cafe.

Our little neighborhood park! Nice tiny playground (you'll see why we call it froggy park) and a great newly paved path around a lake. Head east (right) when you get to the park from our house so you can get a view of the mountains on your mile long walk around the lake.

This is a great little spot to visit if you want to feel like you got a mountian trip without heading all the way to summit county. Morrison is a cute town with lots to see and Lair o' the Bear is full of nice hiking trails and a serene stream.
