The Green Chile So Good It Went to Court
Description
La Loma has been serving its beloved green chile in Denver for more than 5 decades. But behind the scenes, a bitter divorce has put ownership of restaurant’s name and its closely guarded green chile recipe in jeopardy. Denver Post food reporter Miguel Otárola sits down with host Bree Davies to lay out the future of the restaurant’s name, a judge’s ruling on the claims of intellectual property of a recipe, and explain what connection, if any, owners Renee and William Brinkerhoff have to “Grandma” Savina Mendoza and her green chile magic that put La Loma on the map.
