I work just off West Garden of the Gods Road and I heard there’s a new cafeteria/cafe opening somewhere around the old Intel complex. I’d like to try it out but haven’t seen a new restaurant building and can’t figure out exactly where it is. Can you help?

ANSWER: AspenPointe Café had its grand opening in mid-November inside the county Citizens Service Center. It’s open to the public. The service center, which has a parking garage, is where many of the county offices are now, just west of Centennial Boulevard in the former Intel complex on Garden of the Gods Road.
This dining spot, with catering as well, has a well-known executive chef, Peter Aiello, and a “social enterprise” contract with the county to train disadvantaged students in all parts of the food service industry. There are food themes every weekday but one of the favorites is “Fajita Friday.”
Oh! AspenPointe Café I like their foods. And the hospitality of the waiters. And I really love Fajita Friday, haven’t miss it.
