Vail's Larkspur chef,
Thomas Salamunovich, has one goal when he and his 13-year-old son, Leo, appear on "
The Today Show " tomorrow morning: teach Leo, and his two other sons, how to make farm-fresh eggs with crab-potato stuffing and caviar fondue. Salamunovich wants breakfast in bed on Father's Day.Â
Salamunovich's appearance on national TV is a nod to his continued success as one of Vail's top restaurateurs. Not only doesÂ
Larkspur , Salamunovich's founding restaurant, continually receive accolades from local and national press, but in recent years Salamunovich has opened a handful of other VailÂ
restaurants, including Larkburger , a chic burger jointthat melts sharp Tillamook cheddar over its cooked-to-order Coleman natural beef patties. Check out Larkburger in more detail inÂ
5280's August road-trip restaurant, or wait and visit the restaurant yourself in October, when Salamunovich and partnerÂ
Adam Baker open a Boulder location at 28th Street and Arapahoe Avenue. Salamunovich predicts a Denver Larkburger within the next year.
