D'Deli

D'Deli is one of the tiniest eateries that I've ever dined in, but the fresh ingredients and friendly service here more than compensate for what it's lacking in square footage. I went to D'Deli on more than one occasion, mainly because I tended to be in town on Sunday afternoons and no other quick stop eatery seemed to be open when I was hungry.

D'Deli has an extensive menu of cold and hot sub sandwiches. The concept here is a lot like any deli: “create your own sandwich.” There are some differences from a place like Subway in that D'Deli has more options for meats and toppings, and perhaps the ingredients are a bit fresher too.

On my first visit I noticed the small ice cream freezer near the door, and later I was told that was Liks' brand of ice cream. Well I had never heard of Liks, but I was told by a friend that it is made in Denver and considered a local delicacy, so if I was ever at D'Deli again I should stop in and try some.

So late one Sunday afternoon I wandered into D'Deli just to taste some Liks ice cream. The sandwich-maker on duty, Dominic, let me sample whatever flavors I wanted, which was a good thing because most of the flavors were unlike any that I have never heard of in ice cream: Jack Daniels Chocolate Chip, Amaretto Coffee, Caramel Cinnamon, and more. I tried a few and one thing they had in common was a smooth creamy texture. I decided that some of the unusual flavors were a bit too much for me, but the vanilla was just perfect for my tastes at the time. I ordered a kiddie cup scoop and sat at a wobbly window table to watch the snow fall on the cars outside.
