Comfort Food.
Known for its comprehensive treatment of its favorite ingredient, pork, The Berkshire is a playful yet beloved Denver restaurant with a reputation for the slightly excessive, such as the Berkshire's bacon double-genius burger, featuring a half-pound of premium beef, Canadian bacon and horseradish havarti cheese served with French fries and gravy. The good people at the Berkshire recommend trying it topped with a fried egg. Aside from that, any restaurant that serves a caramelized banana-and-peanut-butter sandwich (with bacon, of course) in homage to the King has to be worth checking out.
