How to make pork green chile like they do at Comal Heritage Food Incubator
The restaurant aims to enable women, many from Central American countries, to “maintain and celebrate their traditions through entrepreneurial ventures.”
We’ve spoken to Raymunda Carreón before. Since her words last year were of unease surrounding her living situation in Elyria-Swansea, it was a pleasure to catch up with her in a happy place.
Today Carreón works at Comal Heritage Food Incubator, a restaurant concept inside Globeville’s TAXI Community.
