Hmm... no caviar. But you must understand that this is Aspen. I just got back from a five day stay. The whole time I felt there was a vacuum hose attached to my wallet.
It's a fun silly place to visit, but you don't want to stay too long, unless you're made of money.

You have to go to Vail Village to eat. It's about 10 minutes away and a lot of great resturants to eat at! Unfortunately, no matter where you go, Aspen, Beaver Creek Village or Vail Village, there is NOTHING reasonable except for McDonalds off the highway! We did eat at Beaver Creek Village at a Pizzeria, I think it was called "Blue Moose" that wasn't too bad.

In Aspen, the Hacienda is a good coice for Mexican, kind of like a Chevy's. Boogies is a diner, very kid friendly. The Steakpit is nice and also kid friendly.
