“We’re still here. We’re still thriving.”

Rayme Rossello is passionate about the hospitality business. She’s owned restaurants for over two decades.

Her restaurant Comida, which started as a food truck in 2010, has grown through a couple of locations — from Longmont to The Source in Denver — to the current restaurant location at Stanley Marketplace in Aurora.
