Eating My Way Thru NM

New Mexico - September 2015, bring your fur baby as it is very dog friendly in Sante Fe
  • Tortilla Flats (3139 Cerrillos Rd, Sante Fe NM 87505) - don't forget to order Christmas style (red and green chile); so good, we had to buy a dozen tortillas to go!
 
  • Cafe Pascal's (121 Don Gaspar, Sante Fe NM 87501) - small and cozy inside, we shared a community table with other tourists; went for the Tamal Dulce but they don't serve it anymore, so had the Grilled Polenta with Sauted Chorizo, Corn, and Red Chile.
  • Don't forget to stop by the Sante Fe Farmers Market at The Railyard on Saturdays!
  • The Shed (113 1/2 E Palace Ave, Sante Fe NM 87501) - cute, courtyard outdoor patio with a guitar player; had the Chicken Enchilada Plate (with blue corn tortillas).
  • Don't forget to visit Canyon Road for some art shopping!
  
  • Sante Fe Bite (311 Old Sante Fe Trl, Sante Fe NM 87501) - diner style with another nice outdoor open air patio; highly recommend the Green Chile Cheeseburger, oh so good!
  • Ecco Espresso & Gelato (105 E Marcy Ave, Sante Fe NM 87501) - stroll through The Plaza one evening for Stracciatella Gelato.

  • La Plazuela Restaurant in La Fonda (100 E San Francisco St, Sante Fe NM 87501) - nice ambiance courtyard indoor patio with fountain; Huevos Rancheros, enough said; have a Bell Ringer Margarita (jalapeno tequila) in the Bell Tower Bar on the 5th floor for great views of Sante Fe!
  • If you see a guy selling fruits and veggies out of the back of a pickup truck on the side of the road, buy the Opuntia (aka tuna, prickly pear, cactus); kinda tastes like a kiwi with big hard seeds.

158th New Thing - Tried Sweet Potato Popchips

While we were at Albertsons doing our weekly grocery shopping, there was a lady there giving away free sample bags of Popchips so I took a sample of their Sweet Potato flavor. I had my 0.8 ox bag of Sweet Potato Popchips today with my lunch. Popchips were founded in 2007 in San Francisco as a healthy alternative to traditional potato chips. They aren't fried or baked, but popped by taking potatoes and adding a heat and pressure. They have won awards such as 'Best Snack' from Shape Magazine and 'Best Chips' from Health Magazine. My 0.8 oz bag had 100 calories, 3g fat, 95mg sodium, 16g carbohydrates, and 2g sugar. They had a slightly salted and sweet flavor in the airy chip. It was a good snack with my lunch.   What did you do today?
