Foodies in Santa Fe Part 3--lunch

Tecolote Cafe is another Roadfood find restaurant that is only open till 2 PM.



Pork tamales covered in green chile and cheese with pinto beans and hominy. The tamales look small, but they are actually quite thick and filling.

Chris' original plan had been to eat a green chile burger (a must in Santa Fe), but we had only eaten 3 hours before (we had to rush to get there before it closed since the burger joint that we first planned on going to was closed on Sundays). So instead, he opted for the smaller dish Frito pie--green chile, Fritos, cheese, ground beef, beans, lettuce, onions and tomato.


Nathaniel ordered a plain cheeseburger that was so tasty that he ate most of it before I could get my camera out. They also came with these delicious, thinly sliced, lightly fried potatoes instead of regular fries. At first, Nathaniel wasn't a fan of them, then he just continued to eat them until they were all gone!
