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.

47th New Thing - Watched Laverne & Shirley

The show aired on ABC from January 26, 1976, to May 10, 1983 and starred Penny Marshall as Laverne De Fazio and Cindy Williams as Shirley Feeney. They were roommates who worked in a fictitious Milwaukee brewery called "Shotz Brewery". The show was a spin-off from Happy Days, as the two lead characters were originally introduced on that series as acquaintances of Fonzie.

271st New Thing - Visited the Space Needle

I was on vacation so I didn't have time to post the last few nights, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred 1 day ago   (Tues 7/17/12).   We were in the northwest in the Washington State area for a few days so Matt and my 2 Chicago friends were in Seattle and up the Space Needle yesterday. The Space Needle is a tower in Seattle, Washington and is a major landmark of the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It was built for the 1962 World's Fair, during which time nearly 20,000 people a day used the elevators, with over 2.3 million visitors in all for the World Fair. The Space Needle is 605 feet high at its highest point and 138 feet wide at its widest point and weighs 9,550 tons. It is built to withstand winds of up to 200 mph and earthquakes of up to 9.1 magnitude. The tower also has 25 lightning rods on its roof to prevent lightning damage. The Space Needle features an observation deck at 520 feet, and a gift shop with the rotating SkyCity resta...
