Looking for a pork tenderloin sandwich in the Denver. Must be from a local business and not a chain fast food establishment.
What would be nice is the one similar to BJ Velvet Freeze in Colorado Springs as this was a childhood staple for me.

Big +1 on Velvet Freeze. As a kid, it was less than 2 blocks from my house, so once they opened for the season, it was pretty much a required stop on my way home from school every day. Been by a couple times this year for crunch cones.Quote:

I would also like to find a place with a good pork tenderloin sammich.
Haven’t had a decent one since I left KS. There was this little hole in the wall restaurant in old downtown Olathe called The Mustache Cup, that had a tenderloin sammich that was pounded out so thin that it was larger than the plate it came on. Even cut into quarters and stacked it was 1/2 again as big as the bun.
I also miss the ice cream. The Boston shake was my favorite.Quote:

While there are several chain stores selling ice cream here in the Springs, whenever I'm in the mood for ice cream, and BJ's is open for the season, I head across town to their store to get it.
My grandkids live here in town and my grandson (the oldest grandchild) is 3yo. He'll be spending the night with us in a couple of weeks and my wife and I are already planning on taking him out for ice cream. Of course, it'll be BJ's Velvet Freeze!
Another great place in COS near my parents house is Rizuto's Ice Cream Inc. off Barnes and Oro Blanco.Quote:

Do your own due diligence - and report back here!
Sorry too yuppie and too hipster for this millennial, looking for a more mom and pop place that has been around a very long time.Quote:

Mmmm, Schnitzel. I prefer the Wiener variety. Das gute.
Brings back memories of the fatherland.
That's a bit far to drive for a deep fat fried, asphalt shingle.Quote:

I wouldn’t say it’s worth the drive. But if a guy was passing through that way anyways it’s about the only place to eat between Limon and Burlington.Quote:

My daughter and son (who was also present) went to school @ Dougherty just down the block. They told me that for the same price as BJ's we could go to Rizuto's and get a serious amount of ice cream in the cone (LOTS of ice cream) - but you don't get the ambiance of BJ's. Looks like I might have to try Rizuto's instead (especially since it's right behind New China Kitchen where we always get our Chinese take-out.Quote:

New China Kitchen is great as well. So is Louie's pizza across the street. Funny I went to Doherty as well. My parents are off Crimson Circle South and Oro Blanco.Quote:
