…a foodie’s adventure


This enclave of multi-ethnic culture lies along the strip of Federal Boulevard, between West Alameda and West Mississippi Avenues. It's a quirky little urban stretch that's south of downtown Denver, near Interstate 25, so the city and all its venues are accessible at a moment's notice!

If you're into out-of-the-ordinary food, the area boasts authentic Chinese, Mexican, Salvadoran, Thai and Vietnamese restaurants.

Athmar Park is big on traditional Asian fare—look for bakeries, groceries, gift shops and clothing stores along the way. (You may even find those little black cloth Mary Janes.) Check out the Far East Center Building at Federal and Alameda… it's built Japanese pagoda-style.

Morrison Road, which bisects the Westwood neighborhood, has been redeveloped into the Morrison Road Business District. So, now there are a number of small businesses offering all the basics...and then some.
