The Pueblo chile relleno entered Denver kitchens through Pueblo-immigrated families in the 1920s and 1930s. The Mexican-American kitchens along Federal Boulevard and in Globeville carried it through the 20th century. La Loma, opened in 1973 on Osage by the Castro family, set the Denver template for the dish. Modern versions at Tamayo, Adelitas and Las Delicias rotate between traditional cheese-stuffed and modern picadillo or chorizo variations.
