La Hacienda’s Green Season Chili Cook-Off was a big success, with 16 entries and more than 150 attendees. The winners were Olga in first place, Skip in second and Diego of Hotel Mango Moon in third. The People’s Choice award went to Thomas of Gaia Hotel. Everyone is looking forward to the next chili cook-off.
