Beyond 'FAX: SAME Café Delivers
The goods, that is. Whether you’ve never driven down East Colfax in Denver or driven through the neighborhood a million times, make it a point to visit SAME Café next time you have a few minutes for lunch. That’s all it takes to enjoy the relaxing ambience and delicious food served up by Brad and Libby Birky...and pitch in a little extra to help local folks when you pay for your own delicious (and organic) cup of soup, slice of pizza, or salad. Somehow I missed the lemon cookies, but local poet extraordinaire Joy Roulier Sawyer says they’re fantastic. Yet another reason for me to return soon!
A few other photos from last week’s visit:
Lisa and Carleen waiting for me to hurry up and take the photo already...and allowing a peek at the serving side of the restaurant...SAME Café features outdoor seating (which we thoroughly enjoyed) and a larger-than-expected, open and peaceful indoor dining area.
The hat next door. I couldn’t resist after seeing so many store window shots on Tara’s blog. Denver and Paris...close enough, right?
Here’s Larry! Larry, another Colfax merchant, saw me taking photos and posed for a cameo.

You know, I've never actually been in Denver. The airport, sure. Passing through by car also.
Maybe someday.
Sounds like these folks are good people.
I saw an article on the problems multi-racial people have getting bone marrow matches. Have you seen it?

Hi Gerry! Yes, very good people!
Have heard of the bone marrow issue; will have to check out that article. Thanks! K.
Organic soup, lemon cookies--and you three for lunch? Color me envious.
Patry (google didn't like me today.
Some day we'll all get together for lunch, Patry! K.
Hi, Karen! Is SAME Cafe in/near downtown? My fiance and I will be in Denver in July. Maybe we can meet you there????
