I had hot springs on my mind and headed towards a tiny pueblo called Jemez. It is one of 19 federally recognized Pueblos in New Mexico with a population of 3,400. I love these off beat places.
My kind of high desert, small town with character. The hot springs were closed (?) but I was hungry and wandered over to the Los Ojos Restaurant and Saloon. Upon my first steps walking in, I was in love with place. This place was established in 1947 and serves up cold beer and delicious homemade New Mexican cuisine.
I sat at the bar and chatted with the friendly bartender and relished in the Western décor and atmosphere. Filled my belly with green Chile enchiladas and continued my drive with Shady Jr flapping with his Xmas hat towards Los Alamos.
Made my mouth water talking about the green chile enchiladas!! Susan
