Eileen and I went to Cru in Larimer Square prior to seeing the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. Cru was an excellent suggestion made by Megan. It's a wine bar but also has small plates and appetizers. Eileen and I each tried a wine sampler. They give you 2 oz of 3 different types of wine. Eileen had the merlot and I had the White wines of the World. The small plates we choose were also fantastic. We had cheese fondue and a steak pizza. We then went to see the CSO perform Pictures at an Exhibition. We got a great deal on the tickets - $5 a piece in the center on the front row. Eileen had forgotten her student ID, but we figured we'd ask the guy anyhow. He went on about he was a student too...nursing school. Anyway, I think it just pays to be a young girl.
