Good Stuff: Urban Pantry

With the exception of Pasquini's Pizzeria [2], the South Broadway dining scene has long been a wasteland. But the block north of Pasquini's is quickly becoming a foodie haven, enough so that Platt Park residents (already endowed with gems like Sushi Den [3], Pajama Baking Company, and Gaia Bistro [4]) are wandering over. They browse for wine at Divino Wine & Spirits [5], dine on steak frites at Bistro One [6], and peruse the shelves at Urban Pantry [7]. This months-old shop's well-edited selection of gourmet goodies--such as artisanal farmstead cheeses, Route 11 Potato Chips [8], and Chardonnay-infused peanut brittle--is an exciting neighborhood addition. Choose from made-to-order baguette sandwiches, or pick up a hostess gift of special tapenade or honey. Either way, owner Alexandra Failmezger, a New York City native and former restaurant professional, will help guide you through the shop's 700-plus items. Bonus: Stop by on a Saturday for a product tasting. 1242 S. Broadway, 303-777-5657
