Have you heard? Annette at Stanley Marketplace has officially earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand! 🎉

The Bib Gourmand recognizes restaurants that serve exceptional food at a great value, and Annette is a perfect example. Located at Stanley Marketplace, the restaurant is known for wood-fired dishes, seasonal menus, Colorado ingredients, house-made pastas, and a relaxed but elevated atmosphere.

The Michelin Guide highlighted Annette’s skillful cooking, farm-to-table ingredients, and dishes like its shoestring fries with roasted garlic aioli and house-made pastas.

It’s always exciting to see a local favorite receive well-deserved recognition. Congratulations to Chef Caroline Glover and the entire Annette team!

As we get older, life starts to look a little different. ❤️

When Central Park Scoop started 14 years ago, so much of the focus was on parenting young kids and everything happening in the neighborhood. But now, many of us are entering a new stage of life — still raising families while also helping our aging parents navigate downsizing, moving, and everything that comes with it.

That’s why I wanted to introduce you to Caring Transitions of East Denver. Jennifer Williams, the local owner, joined me to talk about the emotional and logistical challenges that come with downsizing a loved one’s home — from sorting through sentimental belongings to selling valuable items, coordinating donations, and managing what’s left.

And their services aren’t limited to seniors. They can also help with other major life transitions, including divorce and other emotionally difficult moves.

And yes… apparently the Scoop is officially entering its “mid-life content” era. 😂 But if it helps make life a little easier, we're here for it!
