WORD ON THE STREET hasn’t been flattering for Aspen Kitchen lately. (By the way, a rickhouse is a room in which whiskey ages.) In addition to craft cocktails and DJ beats, chef O’Neil’s bar menu is served in Rickhouse Social until 12:30 a.m.-and the same 20 percent local discount applies. Yoga brunch on the Aspen Kitchen patio, in collaboration with Lululemon downstairs, is in the works.Īspen Kitchen has partnered with Breckenridge Distillery to open the new Rickhouse Social speakeasy lounge downstairs (formerly Rec Room Aspen). “We offer an additional 20 percent off bar menu prices as an incentive,” Ellert-Beck says, “This restaurant fills a niche in the community of being casually sophisticated.” Roaring Fork Valley residents who sit at the bar and order off the bar menu need only to show ID.Īgain chef O’Neil plans offseason specials. “One way to gain people’s love is give them a good burger, right?” says GM Marc Ellert-Beck.
On March 25 Rickhouse Social hosts a “Save Tipsy Taxi” party.Įxecutive chef Matt O’Neil keeps it playful with “white trash” tater tots (to slather with housemade crème fraîche and American sturgeon caviar) pork belly donut sliders signature “Clothesline Bacon” lacquered with lavender honey a bone-marrow bourbon luge (with a side of cowbell) crispy, addictive, sweet-sour General Tso’s cauliflower and a monster 30-day dry-aged burger with gouda and garlic mayo on housemade beef-fat brioche bun coated in everything-bagel seasoning (all $14 to $25). April will support Tipsy Taxi, reportedly in danger of ceasing operations after 35 years. In March, proceeds from executive pastry chef Tracy Wilk’s decadent chocolate-chip cookies and Kahlúa-spiked milk benefit the Colorado Women’s Education Foundation.
Aspen Kitchen’s “Sweet Support” program directs $5 per featured dessert ordered to an area charity each month.
