Welcome to Telluride
Telluride is available for private parties, corporate events,
and off site catering.
Welcome to Telluride, named after the picturesque town 8,750 feet above sea level in the San Juan mountains of Southwestern Colorado; the first town Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid "visited" when they switched their focus from trains to banks; the former gold mining town gone Official Ghost Town in the fifties, was resurrected and born again in the seventies and although there is still no traffic light and the resident population has yet to top 1,850, has attracted a sizeable collection of restaurants serving the finest cuisine from the far corners of the world. Harry Truman once quipped, "That's a lot of birds for a one horse town," referring to an abundance (in this case the birds) supported by an apparently insufficient resource base (the manure available from one horse,) the implication being something else is going on there drawing that crowd, in the case of Telluride, good restaurants. What's going on there to have created this fortuitous agglomeration of gastronomic delight is, of course, somewhat beside the point. The point is we like the result; the town, the setting, the pace and the amenities, including the quality and variety of the grub, so it seemed a worthwhile model and meaningful appellation.
