Finally! We sat ourselves down at Southwest Grill and had some food! Join us as we discuss what is, arguably, the most diner-y diner in Pueblo, Colorado. We talk perfect hash browns and weak coffee, impressive interiors and iffy neighborhoods with Brittany Tomko Campbell. You don't want to miss this episode.

So listen. We tried to continue our partnered investigation into the diners of Pueblo with Brittany but the business hours in this town are all over the place. So we went to an old standard to dig into one of the most popular brunches in town, The Shamrock Brewing Company aka The Irish Pub. Join us as we talk traditional Irish breakfasts, super crispy French Toast (turns out they dip them in FROSTED FLAKES!) and more! And don't worry, more diner talk to is in our future.

Happy New Year! In honor of 2025, we are hopping into the time machine to revisit a time when eating al fresco was possible. Remember back when it wasn't too hot and it wasn't too cold, and breakfast on a patio was a nice experience? Us too! Join Kristin and Kriyah as they recount their meal at B Street Cafe with some new friends. They explore eggs, coffee, and automatic gratuity added to a party of 5 or more, when there were only 4 of them. Enjoy!

Hey everyone! We've missed you! As an apology for being away so long, we are serving up a very exclusive, hard to get reservations episode about Colorado institution, Casa Bonita! Not only did we go, we watched the new documentary film now streaming on Paramount Plus the covers the renovation of the much loved and "Disneyland" of Mexican restaurants. Enjoy!

Join Kristin and Kriyah as they visit Pueblo's newest Asian restaurant, River Wok. This cleverly named spot is located right on The River Walk in the heart of downtown Pueblo. They offer Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Vietnamese options and are currently offering a rotating menu for their "soft opening" and they took full advantage. Be sure to stop by to try this awesome local restaurant!

Kristin and Kriyah took a road trip to Denver to see The Pixies and Modest Mouse play at Fiddler's Green! They couldn't think of a better excuse to eat something delicious. Join them as Kriyah tastes sushi from "outside of Pueblo" for the very first time at Enso Sushi & Grill. (Spoiler: It was awesome.)

Our favorite vegan/audio engineer/kickass frontman, Jesse McCoy is back! We missed him so much that we took him to lunch at Julian's and Pueblo staple for Mexican cuisine that stealthily serves ONLY vegan green chile with their food. Join us as we talk about cool wall treatments and plastic cups and Jesse refuses to say "eat it, Pueblo." because he's a rebel who cannot be tamed.
Edit: The first version of this had an echo on it but we replaced it so now the echo is gone!

You know how we always talk about the "lost episodes?" Some people think those are aren't real but they ARE and here is the evidence! We were able to salvage a couple of the lost boys and here is the first one! So jump into the time machine to, like, 2 years ago or something, to when Kristin had not only never tried a California Burrito, she had never heard of them. (Essentially it's a carne asada burrito with some fries in there.)
Also, apologies in advance. We have no memory of what we said.
Let us know how young we sounded by emailing us a eatitpueblopodcast@gmail.com or shout us out on the socials!
