The Bite
Thinking about the perfect date night for you and your beau? Here's where to
plan-et: Mercury Café makes organic and local eats, like
Alamosa Striped Bass Linguini (with a fiery kick), plus serves biodynamic
Jack Rabbit Hill wines and organic brandy from CO's only organic distillery,
Peak Spirits. You can also tango with a couple of pros, get a tarot reading, or - this Friday only - chill to the live acoustic guitar of local Dave Gannon in the Jungle Room. There's brunch too - our one-too-many-glasses-of-vino-last-night picker-upper: the Avo Pavo Loco Omelet with turkey sausage, avocado, and green chilis. The Merc powers up with wind and solar, sports energy-efficient lighting, and recycles its water too. No reservation required. It's fate.

Mercury Café, 2199 California St. (303-294-9258). Tango and tarot start at 6:30 p.m., Dave Gannon at 7:30 p.m. Alamosa Striped Bass Linguini, $16.
