Jayma Cardoso Shares Her Insider Guide to Aspen

Evenings in Aspen are centered around The Snow Lodge and the Jade Room, which is emerald green and famous for its music and high-class company. Here, celebrities such as Mikey Madison, Prince Harry, Colman Domingo, and Mariah Carey come to enjoy music and luxuries such as Caviar Kaspia. Aspen for Cardoso is about rhythm – skiing in the mornings, socializing in the evenings, and relaxing in between.

Cardoso starts her day with breakfast at Poppycock's, which she loves because of the great eggs and old-time charm. For lunch, she varies the venue to different places she likes, like the White House Tavern, Big Wrap, and Hickory House, which she says has "Texas energy in the Rockies." The unique thing about Aspen is that it is both a luxury destination and a mountain town. The comfort and energy of the place speak to this.

The Snow Lodge and its Jade Room are the heart of Aspen nightlife. The Jade Room is an emerald green nightclub that features live music. Mikey Madison, Prince Harry, Colman Domingo, and Mariah Carey are some of the famous visitors to this nightclub. Cardoso explains that the rhythm of Aspen is skiing in the morning, socializing with your friends at night, and relaxing during the in-between times.

Apart from Cardoso's own places, she recommends other places such as Kenichi, Bosq, Casa Tua, and Pine Creek Cookhouse. These places reflect the diversity of Aspen's food scene, which allows for a relaxing atmosphere, luxury, and a large number of people.
