I was going to make dinner tonight, but John texted me at the last minute to invite me to Harry’s Roadhouse<\/a>, the nearest restaurant to his place, for dinner. Why not?!<\/p>\n

It’s another restaurant with a colourful history and is very quintessentially American with a diner feel. We ate at a counter on stools and behind us were 1950s Formica tables with matching chairs. John says that it’s not the best food in Santa Fe, but it’s very popular because of its location and the price is right.<\/p>\n

The menu was really eclectic, everything form New Mex food like burritos to burgers and pizzas to… Moroccan stew. Seriously. I was impressed by the selection and the reasonable prices.<\/p>\n

It was really hard to decide so when John suggested the blue corn turkey enchiladas, that was it. I thought it would be interesting to compare Mexican enchiladas to New Mexican ones. John said that I would be asked if I wanted red or green, as in the chile sauce, and I surprised him by responding, “Christmas!” Another item off my travel bucket list, ordering something Christmas in New Mexico! \ud83d\ude00 That means you want half red sauce and half green.<\/p>\n

New Mexican enchiladas are more substantial than Mexican ones, which are a meat filling in corn tortillas with some consomme over top and maybe a dollop of crema and some rice and beans on the side.<\/p>\n

These were smothered in cheese (which, if you’ve been reading my blog long enough, you know is NOT a problem *g*) and had sour cream, guacamole (SO GOOD!), tomatoes, and whole beans on the side, plus a flour tortilla for mopping up your plate. Excellent! There was a bit of kick to the green sauce, but I really can deal with that now, and, besides, the sour cream is there to cool things down if you need to. The portion was generous, but there wasn’t quite enough to make two meals and at $10.50, the price was right even if I didn’t take home leftovers.<\/p>\n

I’m thus far really impressed with the culinary offerings in Santa Fe!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
