It opens at 6:00 pm for dining, with the first evening show at 7:00 pm. The stage is against the southern wall.<\/p>\n<p>The menu has a lot of variety, from mac and cheese to braised greens to New York strip. The drink menu last night featured a &#8220;Bowling Green Massacre.&#8221; You can tell why we like this place.<\/p>\n<p>Kate and I met listening to chamber music at the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. I realized last night that in the literal sense jazz is chamber music, too. It&#8217;s no surprise then that Kate and I have shifted our musical evenings to Denver&#8217;s jazz scene. And we get food.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imbolc \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Valentine Moon Purnell Steen and Le Jazz Machine.
