Colorado pork green chili in CoS... recommendations?

[Great-Kazoo]

You're wrong. You're arguing blondes vs brunettes

"Green Chili" in AZ is bad to non-existent. They sometime use a squeeze bottle here and call it green chili.

I have had to resort to making my own with frozen NM chili imports. It's pretty F'in good.

AMEN to that., I found 1 place that kind of comes close. If you want CO style, call ahead of time. I'l throw a pot on for ya. Or defrost what ever i have left in the freezer.

The best green chili I've had in Colorado Springs is at a little breakfast place near Old Colorado City called Mountain Shadows Cafe.

I've made a point of trying green chili everywhere I can in The Springs and Pueblo, and while there are a lot of good contenders, Mountain Shadows is the best I've found.

Sorted the green & now I've been looking for really great food down in Colorado Springs as a whole... what else might you all recommend I try?

Fwiw Im big on steak & grilled/smoked items, Mediterranean, Japanese, Italian & I lovelovelove home style sweets like icecream, cobbler & pie. Open to suggestions for restaurants & especially particular items on the respective menus.

Kings Chef reopened recently. Gary makes some excellent breakfasts.

A couple of other faves, Sandy's near Pete Field and Doug's Breakfast and lunch.

+1 on Kings Chef for breakfast, its cash only and if you get the full portion you will be full long after lunch. Sandy's is a good place for breakfast as well. Mountain Shadows Restaurant has decent breakfast.

BBQ/Cobbler: Bird dog BBQ is one of my favorites down here...they have a few locations
Italian - Paravicinis
Mediterranean: Mediterranean Cafe, Caspian cafe, Jake and Telly's

I want to add Susie's West Side Cafe on 21st. For your options, I've got it made, I live in OCC and agree that we have some incredible restaurants.

But if you want freakin' HOT green chili, it's at Western Omelette on Walnut St and Colorado. If you try to order the hot and not the mild, they will bring you out a little sample first. I've never been in there and had someone not change their mind down to at least half hot/half mild. Damn good though!

I am not a fan of Western’s green in terms of flavor. Adding extra habaneros doesn't fix that. The taste-test is a gimmick.

I much prefer the taste at King Chef, even if is isn’t “hot”. Without them, I have nearly no reason to venture downtown.
