Zeppelin Station's continuing Made in a City series brought a new eatery to its rotating counter on June 14. This season's theme is Mexico City, and with it comes Campobaja, a restaurant from the Distrito Federal specializing in the seafood of Baja California. Selections include grilled octopus or beef-cheek tacos; tostadas topped with red shrimp aguachile, red snapper ceviche or scallops; and panna cotta made with fresh corn and yogurt, among other items, all priced from $3.50 to $10.
For an entirely different kind of seafood experience, take a peek inside 2727 South Parker, the former home of the Aurora outpost of Moe's Original Bar B Que. It's now a Cajun crawfish house called the Juicy Seafood, where you can indulge in mud bugs, crab, shrimp and other shellfish by the pound.
And speaking of Southern, Sassafras has completed its move from Jefferson Park to West Highland and is now serving breakfast and lunch in the conjoined Victorian mansions previously occupied by Solitaire (and Highland's Garden Cafe before that). More space, outdoor seating in the beautiful garden patios, and a full liquor license are among the draws for new Sassafras neighbors.
Here's our complete list of restaurant and bar openings for the week of June 10-16, plus links to current and upcoming activity.

Now you can get your Voodoo doughnut at two Denver locations.

We don't just track restaurant openings and closings; we also talk to chefs around town to see what they're up to. This week, Dana Rodriguez of Super Mega Bien and Work & Class shared her pozole recipe, Matt Vawter of Mercantile Dining & Provision got a promotion, and Comal welcomed new executive chef Arden Lewis.
