As I said in my previous post, before we enjoyed walking in Boulder, we used to stop for quick lunch. You know, this is really easy to find a good restaurant in Boulder... All you need is to stop somewhere and you will be swamp with many options. But if you want something special, you can face a parking problem, so it took about 20 minutes circling around before we found a spot to park our car. And all these troubles because we wanted to have a couple of empanadas at Rincon Argentino :)
But, to be honest, they are worth it. Baked just for your order they are fresh and tasty. And they are different from ones you can have in Denver's chain of Maria Empanada (a great place to try
Argentinian empanadas by the way)... We had the steak empanadas (really yummy), and also a Caprese - a great combination of mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and
basil (yummy-yummy). These Caprese things are a great combination of ingredients and my personal favorite in any empanada
place ;)
Later, while we were walking along Pearl
street, we peeked into a couple of interesting stores. The first we stopped by offered Turkish lights and rags. Just a few years ago these fixtures were
rare and mostly offered as a one bulb light. Usually colorful and decorated with geometric design. Now you can see them in many places, but this store
(Lolo) offers, maybe, the biggest inventory to choose from.
And you can
find not only a colorful version, but also a clear glass one (and it looks
great). Also they offer some brass fixtures that look new, fresh and
unusual. We really had a good time browsing around and comparing
different options.
Another store where we spent
some time gave us the impression of being just a regular souvenir shop. But now no one store can
survive without offering some crazy socks and this one wasn't an
exception.
And... oh man, these socks were really crazy - the socks packed in a bento
box and looked like sushi or ice cream socks (it was good that we already had our lunch though)...
Regular crazy socks and
some crazy slippers and room socks...
That was fun to wander around
this place and look at all the small souvenirs one can buy so they can never forget the time spend in City of Boulder :)...
