Its new iteration, which is now open for breakfast and lunch, has a larger menu, more space and can offer training to more women.
After six years in Zeppelin’s TAXI development,list of the 50 Best Restaurants in America in 2021, has moved to a new, larger space at the nearby RiNo ArtPark .
Focus Points launched the Comal restaurant training program in 2016 with a group of Mexican women from the neighboring community, including Globeville, Elyria-Swansea, Five Points and Cole. The idea behind it was to foster and support immigrants and refugees by teaching them the skills they needed to run their own food-based business.
Current program participants include Maria Elena Perez, Silvia Alvarez, Silvia “Judith” Guevara, Selene Arteaga, Maricela Rivera Sanchez and Gilnia Contreras, and each woman brings her own culture, recipes and goal to the incubator. For example, Arteaga, who is from Mexico City, was teaching cake-making and now wants to expand her skills and learn to run her own shop.
The summer menu includes ham, cheese and veggie burritos; pollo en pipán with rice and beans; chile relleno de picadillo dulce; el caribe-o tilapia empanizada with coleslaw and tostones; tacos de carne asada; vegetable a la plancha; and weekly chef specials.
