Aspen: Well hello Matsuhisa, nice to meet you
The holy grail of Aspen food is UNarguably Matsuhisa. As in celeb-heavyweight Nobu’s little pet sister restaurant, the one Chef Nobu only opened for fun.

So the girls and I trekked up to Cedar Park for a Year of the Ox Chinese New Year…
Snow Pea Bento Box
