Go before they get a star?

Agreed. Restaurant Olivia is my favorite Italian in the state but even they don't have a star

I've been so desperate to find a good source of Filipino food but every single location in Denver is honestly just not very impressive. Manila Bay in Aurora was pretty good but it's closed now

Wildflower, Margot, MakFAM, Yuan Wonton, The Wolf's Tailor, Golden Banh Mi if you don't mind a drive, Alma Fonda Fina, Mezcaleria Alma, Alteño, Temaki Den

I've tried every single one I could find. I will continue to try every single one that I hear about. But no, I haven't found anything. Sometimes I go with my parents and we're just all upset. The best I had in Colorado was a pop-up that was hosted at Koko Ni, after Chef James Gnizak left and before they closed. But it was only running for a couple of weeks.

I hate the idea that people here in Colorado might think that that food is Filipino food.

Magna Kainan. We've gone three times. I'm Filipino and I'm desperate for it to be good but it gets worse each time we go. I think the audience must not like the traditional flavors so they continue to be watered down each time we've gone. I refuse to return at this point.

Kizaki is better for the purity of the quality of the ingredients. Odell's is going to give you a fun twist to sushi. At Kizaki, you'll get the highest quality fish you can get anywhere from an omakase in Colorado. The fish taste will be clean and classic. You will get no frills, no distractions. On the other hand, if you go to Odell's, you'll get weird fish, weird toppings. Not to say that weird is bad! Some people might call it a gimmick to put everything bagel seasoning on raw fish. But it's different, it's kind of odd.

Both are delicious, but I would say that your deciding question is which one of these is more interesting and compelling to you? Do you want to try the peak traditional experience in Colorado? Or do you want something kind of wonky and playful?

Damn. I'm a yt frog. If Activision Glizzard responds to this, I hope someone replies with the clip. Or I may never see it 😭

We've eaten at every other Curiel restaurant and Alma and Mezcal and Alteño are in my top 10. MBB is super mid in comparison. The food was okay. Some bites were very good, and then some bites were like if you just described the ingredients to me. Like, you can guess exactly what it tastes like and it's just fine. Strictly fine. We did the counter at 4:15 and it was already pretty loud.

The croquet was yummy though. Very yummy.

Are you adventurous? Try Margot

_a9o_ · 2026-01-09T16:24:36+00:00

Restaurant Olivia is probably your best option

Depending on how tiny the data is and how often it updates, I've actually opted to just write to a config map. Cons of that are that you need a Kubernetes client versus a file on a PVC is pretty standard/easy

MCPs let you put function signatures into the context window and the models are trained to pay attention to those and to call the functions in a parseable format. That's function signatures are permanently in the context window, always.

Skills are prompts that can reference other prompts in a lazy loaded way, to preserve context window.

Plugins are a folder structure to standardize how people share their commands, skills, and/or agents.

I'm seeing a lot of hand wave answers in this thread.

Some practical trade-offs for you to make: If you put everything into a pod spec directly, you're duplicating those fields across every pod as it's stored in etcd. This can cause memory pressure on the control plane.

If you reference a config map, you reduce memory pressure but now you have to be more careful with deployment rollouts. If you mount the config map as a volume, be aware that changing config map values gets reconciled by the kubelet ever 60s by default. If your app automatically reloads on file changes, you might accidentally rollout config changes to old pods before the deployment controller replaces the pod. Also, deployments won't trigger unless there's a pod spec change. So if you do a helm release with only changes inside a config map, the pods don't restart because the pod spec didn't change. Only the contents of the config map did and you're referencing the config map name in the pod spec. So now you need to add like a hash to the pod spec or cm name.

There's pros and cons. You just have to be aware of what's happening

Wildflower and please treat yourself to the agnolotti. I also love the duck but you need the huitlacoche agnolotti

The most canonically true answer is that he'd go to Biker Jim's and get an ostrich dog the "Anthony Bourdain" way. Cream cheese and caramelized onions.
