My dad is passing through Albuquerque and was looking for a good place to eat so I checked in with my sister-in-law, who lives there. Figured I’d share her suggestions which include: the Grove Cafe, Standard Diner, Farina (for wood oven pizza) and Artichoke Cafe (a fancier place).
Also for a funky New Mexican food place, there is Duran’s Pharmacy near Old Town – an old-fashioned pharmacy with a little restaurant that serves pretty decent stuffed sopapillas and green chile stew.
