Santa Fe, New Mexico

Maria's  

Jay really, really liked this place, the food, the margarita's, everything.

Unfortunately , I got so caught up in eating and drinking I didn't take any pictures of the food.

But we both please with what we ordered.

The real draw here is the Margarita's, they are absolutely the best we have ever had.  Their bar has over 100 different Tequila's and they do not use simple syrup, it is just straight real Tequila, real Triple Sec and lemon juice.  ( they prefer lemon over lime because they say the juice of lemons is more consistent)

I would make sure to stop into Maria's, even if it's just for an appetizers and a Margarita.( We saw some onion rings that looked killer)

Taos, New Mexico

Grahams 

This is a really sweet place in the middle of downtown. When we were researching where to eat ( always do your homework) we ran across this restaurant that allowed dogs on their patio, so we decided to give it a try.

Don't you love the doggie menu

I had the special of the day, pork carnitas, they were delecious

J had chowder and an Elk burger, he said it was great

And Izzie had her grilled chicken breast served on a bed of shredded carrots and greems


I would give this place **** , the chef even came out to see if Iz enjoyed her meal.
