Welcome back, DU!
Classes are about to start and since we all have to quarantine for a while, why not enjoy this time to explore diverse flavors from around the world?
Here at International Admissions, we have compiled a list of restaurants with an international cuisine focus so we can all add some “spice” to our time at home. We chose local restaurants as a way to experience an authentic cuisine and support our local business. All restaurants have the option to “pick up” or deliver and websites with their menu and pictures of these amazing dishes!
Below is our list, in no certain order, and suggestions for dishes to try that our team recommends:
Maria Empanada
Our Choice: Chicken Chimichurri Empanada
Addresses: 1298 South Broadway Ave, Denver, CO, 80210 and 2501 Dallas Street,
Aurora, CO 80010
Website: https://www.mariaempanada.com/
Aroma do Brazil
Even if not all “combo” options of mention that you can choose “side of your choice”, it is worth asking if it is possible to trade some items. Try the fried yucca or the chicken salad – the additional cost is worth it!
