Hotel Boulderado Holiday (Gluten Free) Tea!

I absolutely love holiday events, christmas lights, the music, family dinners etc... and this month I've been having an exceptionally hard time being away from Santa Fe (I'm counting down the hours). To make up for my slight unhappiness I was determined to experience some wonderful holiday events in Denver and Boulder. Well...it was a fabulous weekend! The professor and I had an evening of beautiful entertainment at Colorado Ballet's the Nutcracker.  The next day we devoured tea sandwiches, scones, cookies, tea and champagne at the Hotel Boulderado. I was able to have a gluten free meal that was almost identical to everybody else.

After the sugar high wore off, we strolled along Pearl Street to people watch and walk off some calories. I would highly recommend having tea at the Boulderado Hotel. The staff was extremely helpful, polite and careful in preparing a meal that was safe to eat and tasted really good! Cheers!
