Greg: the chile festival itself is a little on the small side, but you can
get bushels of roasted chile (or raw) for about $15.00 each, throw in
another $4-5 to roast them. It's worth that just to smell... There are
booths selling ristras, hot sauce, burritos and green chile (a Pueblo
staple) and other such stuff. If you are coming down I-25, take the 1st
street exit, go about 3 or 4 blocks west, and you can't miss it (again,
follow your nose).
Good restaurants include the Mill Stop, Jorges, Nachos (in the same part
of town as the festival), Cactus Flower, Coors tavern (home of the famous
slopper- an open face hamburger smothered in green chile), Romero's (winner
of several chile contests), I could go on and on, but just look in the
phone book, theres a whole bunch of them here.

good places to eat <<<boz>>>
