Looking for Good food in Albuquerque
Will be in Albuquerque in one week. Looking for a great place to eat.
I do not want to have New Mexican or Mexican.
We have been told to try Pars, Zinc Wine Bar and Chama River Brewing Co. So I would love to hear anything you have to say about anyone of those.
Thanks.

re: high desert chow
Definitely go to Gil's site. He covers everything. And don't overlook his recommendations in the great little town of Corrales, just acrosss the Rio Grande.

These are all places I have eaten at and consider my favorites. I have not included any national chains. I hope you can use this info. I probably missed some;
$$ means expensive; type of food is indicated if title of restaurant isn't clear; general location given. All are in ABQ proper unless otherwise noted. {This list is from an old post of mine, so there are Mexican and New Mexican places on it. Are you dead set against New Mexican?? It is not Mexican nor is it like Mexican that you may have had elsewhere}Local chains with mulitple locations:
Garcia's Kitchen - New Mexican
Little Anita's - New Mexican
Flying Star - coffee, desserts, good food; eclectic
Dions - pizza [best chain]
Papa Johns - pizza
Garduno's - mexican [pretty run of the mill]
Weck's -breakfast
Souper Salad
