SALT, Still a Personal Favorite

Some of my friends think I’m a little too obsessed with SALT.  I’m certainly not talking about the crystals of flavor we sprinkle on food.  I’m talking about the bistro named after our oldest seasoning.  Why would I be obsessed with a restaurant?  That’s silly.  Silly, yes, but there must be some truth to it because when a friend texted me that the restaurant we had planned to meet at was packed, I suggested SALT without hesitation. 

Let’s go to SALT.

Go to SALT we did, and we enjoyed a plum and goat cheese flatbread.  I’d never had a plum, goat cheese, and mint flatbread, and while plums are in season, you should go try one of these.  The plums are sweet and moist, local goat cheese adds a nice contrast to the sweetness of the plums, and a sprinkle of mint ties it all together.  Good thinking, Mr. Executive Chef Kevin Kidd and staff.

I also enjoyed a unique cocktail- Cool as a Cucumber– created by SALT’s up and coming Tyler Anderson.  This vodka-based cocktail with cucumber and Serrano peppers is fantastic, especially on a hot summer day.

And I could go on and on… like how there are a number of cute men working there… but that has NOTHING to do with the quality of their food nor with why I enjoy SALT so much.  It just continues to be one of the best places in Boulder for food and drink. Period.
