Cherie Montoya wins the 2017
“Olla” Local Hero Award
After receiving the Best Restaurant in years past and Best Chef this year, we are extremely grateful to receive this special Local Hero Award that recognizes the hard work Cherie has put into championing farm fresh, locally-produced food in New Mexico.
“I love that local food connects us with the people, ecology, history, and traditions of a particular place – whether it be a specific area of town, another city or a different part of the world. Here in Albuquerque, I love that local food has the ability to strengthen our community.”
– Cherie Montoya
