ASID Apres Design
Wednesday, March 24, 2010, 4:00 pm
Some folks still get their kicks on Route 66, for ASID members it will be the INTERSTATE Kitchen & Bar. Their slogan is "Comfort food, comfort hooch, comfort scene, comfort price." Sound comfy? An old red Ford pickup has been cannibalized to create a unique seating spot in the bar area. The dining space is a touch more elegant. They are trying to evoke Americana but not be a diner.
Location: INTERSTATE Kitchen & Bar, 901 W. 10th Ave. #1A, Denver, CO 80204
