Memorabilia From the Much-Missed Racines Offers a Taste of the Past
If yours was one of the many families or groups of friends that regularly patronized Racines, a classic restaurant that became one of the many COVID-related losses in 2020, someone in your clan probably swore by the Nutty Cheese Salad. It was a popular dish, if sort of weird, but weird in that way people sometimes loved, and miss: a base of romaine and field greens, shredded fontina and white cheddar, grape tomatoes, slices of banana, sunflower seeds, cashews, almonds and some crunchy puffed wheat, all under a custom, honey-mustard dressing. It was one of those things Denver diners loved…or laughed at.

Restaurant report reignites tipped minimum wage debate
The latest tactic to revive Denver's restaurant industry revisits a controversial idea: lowering the city's minimum tipped wage. Why it matters: A report released last month by the city's tourism arm reignited a clash between those seeking to lower labor costs to stay afloat and business owners who say providing a living wage is essential. The big picture: The report indicates labor costs rose roughly 50-55% between 2019 and 2024, and says it now costs more to run a restaurant in Denver than in New York City . State of play: The report made multiple recommendations to address the industry's challenges, but tweaking tipped wages appears to have caught the attention of at least one Denver City Council member. Councilmember Darrell Watson, whose district includes culinary epicenters like the RiNo Art District and Park Hill, recently confirmed to Denverite that he is interested in exploring a change to the city's wage laws . Context: Denver's current minimum hourly wage for tipped workers jumped from $15.79 to $16.27 this year. The report suggests reducing the wage to the state's minimum ($12.14), noting labor costs are a major reason so many establishments are struggling to stay in business. What they're saying: "Cutting
