New Mexico: Santa Fe Dining
Santa Fe is known for its thriving art scene, but its restaurants have also made their mark, attracting foodies from all over the world. Located adjacent to the plaza in downtown Santa Fe, Cafe Pasqual’s is a small gem of a restaurant which opened in 1979. Founder and Chef Katharine Kagel serves up organic unique dishes to a dining room that only seats fifty people, while others wait their turn outside the restaurant.
