Aspen Club and Spa

Garnish Cafe

The Garnish Café is located inside the Aspen Club. No, you don’t have to be a member and don’t worry about parking because there is plenty of free parking! We were met by Clark Church the Chef and Owner of Garnish Café.  I can’t remember the last café I ate at in Aspen that I had contact with and was served by the owner of the place. If you are looking for a healthy place to eat, this is it. There were many options for a vegetarian and others who want to eat right. The portions are perfect with lots of vegetables. I had the Asian salad (Napa Cabbage, Julienne of Carrots, Edamame, Water Chestnuts, Toasted Almonds, Orange Segments, Sesame Vinaigrette $10), which I thoroughly enjoyed! I liked the crunchy element the water chestnuts and toasted almonds added to the salad.  I also tried a small serving of “Church’s Chowder”, which was delicious. The Garnish Café is a serene restaurant that has great service, food, and plenty of parking. All of those things are becoming harder to find in Aspen.  Served by the chef and in and out without a parking ticket!
