Italian Stallion

The Bite:
Your search for fab Italian food been a little Rocky? Sylves-turn to Boulder's new Arugula Bar e Ristorante, which cranks out delish Northern Italian fare. Let the drooling begin: pork tenderloin (A-Bar masters the tender part) roasted with apples, oregano, and grappa sauce, or (and?) housemade gnocchi served with caramelized pears, hazelnuts, and Gorgonzola - and man, we wish we still had some leftovers. A-Bar packs an eco-punch too: It uses organic produce and local meats from places like Long Family Farms, and it's got hardwood floors reengineered from waste wood fibers and shavings, and the wooden beams came from a 300-year-old barn - modern and clean, it's a knockout.
Wanna Try: 
Arugula Bar e Ristorante, 2785 Iris Ave., Boulder. Map It (303-443-5100). Long Family Farms Pork Tenderloin, $20; Pear and Gorgonzola Gnocchi, $15.

Cocktail Fact

The Party at Kitty and Stud's - the X-rated film Sylvester Stallone starred in before Rocky - was re-released as Italian Stallion after the boxing film became a huge success.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 Denver Biters opt for a pound of locally produced meat, in a month we'll conserve enough diesel fuel to fill 11 kiddie pools.
