Does anyone remember that restaurant in Denver that was famous for their rosin potatoes? Probably 1940's - 1960's?? What was the name?

Does anyone remember a the names of the club's that were at the old turn of the century building

Depends on which Turn of the Century building you are referring to. It was on Hampden near Poplar originally then moved to Hampden and Yosemite. Then it became the Maui Bay Club, then the Denver!Denver!

I had my first canoli in Utica, NY in the mid '70s which was like what you described as the North Denver canoli. When I looked for them later I was quite surprised that they were a cream filled pastry rather than a rolled pizza.

I believe that that was Footer's. I lived right down the street at 11th and Clarkson in the 70s. That place was waayyy overrated, food was good but staff's performance in serving their less-affluent and female customers was offhand and perfunctory.
