Rt. 66 Diner

We found old Rt. 66 running though Albuquerque just a few blocks from our hotel. Out for a morning drive we past the Rt. 66 Diner, then after a quick U-turn we pulled in for a hardy breakfast and some great decor.

"I loved the hopscotch at the diner."

No I didn't find my long lost twin It's just dad playing with the computer.

 

Garduno's

Alex and dad got some restaurant advice from a local girl named Brooke. They met Brooke on the the flight in from St.Louis, she was back in Albuquerque visiting her grandparents and a sick friend. So we drove across town to Garduno's (the original) and had a great mexican meal. Brooke told us about a tastee treat called Sopapilla made with a light corn batter and cooked like a puff pastery.

 

"Sopapilla's is my new favorite food. I like them with honey."
