Wayan stands out by bringing Southeast Asia to Aspen, a welcome reprieve from so many steak and pasta spots in ski country. These dishes are homey but still fancy enough: lobster noodles with black pepper butter and Thai basil, peekytoe crab fried rice, and charred chicken lombok. And you should always start with the satays. Grab a bar seat, so you can watch the chicken, beef, Key West pink shrimp, scallop, and lamb skewers constantly being turned on the open grill. Everything is made to share, so the format works especially well for groups wanting to try something new.
