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.

132nd New Thing - Played with Talking Tom Cat

I was searching through apps on my Droid Razr and came about Outfit7's Talking Tom Cat . This app is described as a cat that responds to your touch and repeats everything you say in a funny voice. I wanted to see what it was all about so I downloaded the app to my Razr to check it out. You can Talk to Tom and he will repeat everything you say with a funny voice, pet his body or head to make him purr, poke his head, belly or feet, grab his tail, pour a glass of milk for him to drink, and forget about him and he will yawn or sneeze. I find Tom only slightly enjoyable. What did you do today?

144th New Thing - Ate a LQ Belgian Waffle

We stayed at the La Quinta Inn & Suites  the past 2 nights since my brother and sister-in-law were visiting Colorado to ski. LQ's serve free Bright Side Breakfast daily as an amenity to all guests. The Bright Side Breakfast includes: waffles, hot and cold cereal, bread/bagels/muffins/pastries, hard boiled eggs, fresh fruit, and all-you-can-drink coffee/juice/milk. This morning, I made-my-own LQ Belgian Waffle. They make the batter and you make the waffle on their iron. It cooked evenly and turned out fluffy and tender. I wonder what mix they use for the batter (my 1st internet search suggested that they buy their waffle mix from Sysco , my 2nd internet image search found out it is Carbon's Golden Malted Original Pancake & Waffle Flour). I ate 1/2 of my waffle with syrup and fruit and the other half with PB&J. It was a good breakfast to have before skiing, again! What did you do today?
