Impact Fusion

I have a friend who moved to Denver, Colorado about two years ago. It coincided with my own move to Northern California, though mine was for school and his was a major job transfer. His name is Mike and he works for a company called Old Chicago. He used to be a training manager and, ooops, to be honest I don’t know what he’s doing with the company these days. However, one thing I will say is that through Mike I’ve learned what a great company it is as he really enjoys working there and is extremely supportive of the quality of the food. I can testify to the quality of the taste of the food as I have eaten at a few Old Chicago’s in my time. In fact, before I even knew Mike, well, not technically as we were childhood friends who have since reconnected as many people do on Facebook, so we did actually know each other or at this point maybe it’s know of each other when I used to go to Old Chicago regularly after work with friends.

I used to love their pizza but would frequently get so full on appetizers like nachos and chicken wings that I couldn’t eat anything else. That was actually an ongoing aspect of our after-work visits. We would go almost every Thursday night and we would always say we were going to have the pizza. As soon as we got there we’d order drinks and wings and then one or two other things and before we knew it we were stuffed and no one had ordered a pizza. Oh one of the things that would always seal the deal was when someone ordered the signature platter with pepperoni rolls, garlic bread and Italian nachos. That was absolutely the best. We had a lot of fun in those days. I’m actually going to Denver next month and will visit Mike while I’m there. Thinking about those Thursday nights years ago really makes me eager to visit Denver’s Old Chicago restaurant. I’ll have to make sure there’s a refrigerator in the room at my hotel so I can bring leftovers. Maybe this time I’ll actually get to have a pizza.
