This Restaurant Serves Wine And Toilet Paper Rolls As To-Go Sides
Not all heroes wear capes—some are restaurants with takeaway menus that will hook you up with merlot and some Charmin extra strong. That's the case with Denver restaurant and wine bar, Noble Riot, who got creative amidst the current crisis.
Listen, it's never been more important to support small local businesses, and Noble Riot is just making it easier for you to do so. I hear the Cab Sauv pairs well with the two-ply and a healthy serving of social distancing.
When In Doubt, Reopen As A Fried Chicken Spot
Noble Riot, a Denver wine bar, is only a year old, but it's already become a favorite spot among locals. But like every small business that's forced to put their operations on pause because of the current global situation, Noble Riot decided to get creative.
To keep serving people during this stressful time, the business pivoted and became a takeaway fried chicken joint operating out of the kitchen of a neighboring restaurant. They became Noble "Fry-It" and released a new takeout/to-go menu that solved a lot of the social-distancing concerns of a sit-down wine bar, but people quickly noticed something on the menu...
People Loved It—So They Expanded
People quickly caught on that they were selling $4 rolls of toilet paper, and you guessed it—that was a massive hit. Normally, I'd complain about all of this toilet paper hoarding because it literally makes no sense why this is the hot-ticket item, but since it's helping a small business, I'm holding my tongue.
Noble Fry-It quickly leaned into popular demand and released some food hits that will definitely speak to us stuck at home. Personally, my favorite is the "Video Conference Sandwich," but I've sampled the "The Apartment Is Very Clean Now Sandwich," and it's good.
They Also Offer Some Liquid Support To Get You Through These Times (Wink Wink)
Noble Riot is supposed to be a wine bar, so obviously they're just staying true to their roots and helping out the good people of Denver the best way they know how. And that's by offering a bottle to pair nicely with a family-sized bucket.
Honestly, even if we weren't living in the times we are now, I personally think wine, chicken, and toilet paper are the three essentials I would need to have an excellent night. So hunker down, stay inside, binge Tiger King on Netflix, and enjoy your dang self.
