My wife and I will be headed to Taos Wednesday. I have a few questions.
-Most importantly, any locals going to be skiing Thursday or Friday? Would love to get a guided tour. I'll buy the beer. I don't know the mountain too well. I want to hike. I may be meeting up with mag Mooseknuckle if that works out.
-What's the absolute BEST Mexican food in the Taos area?
-Is Ojo Caliente worth the hour drive from Taos?
Thanks!
There is a really good New Mexican place on the road from Taos proper to the junction to get to the ski valley, though the name is completely missing me.Quote:

You missed an incredible spring weekend with 15" of new. Sorry no pics was by myself.
Most everybody loves Orlando's - I think that's what rontele was talking about.
I love Orlando's, except I recently found out my favorite dish is no longer made in restaurant...
still good though.
+1 for Orlandos. Great fish tacos.
Taos Cow ice cream in Arroyo Seco is damn good too.
if you're headed up from sante fe direction, there's a fantastic restaurant that's well worth a stop called "rancho de chimayo". outside of chimayo, nm
Some of the best I've had in the southwest, but carries some gaseous consequences.
#1 Mexican Food = Guadalajara grill (known simply as "the Guad") ask a local, they'll tell you.
Stop into pizano's pizza, on the way, it's really good,
Or in Arroyo Secco, just past Taos Cow, there's a little pub / convenience store / restaurant called Abes. Best green chilli burgers ever!
Stay off the sun exposed stuff, It set up quick!
Rita's on the SE corner. Amazing tamales and Chiles Rellenos!Quote:

Orlando's has good Mex food at a decent price. It's on the main highway north of town before you get to the turn to the area. Taos is reporting a 90" top and 70" mid-way base and tickets are $30 from now until closing on April 8th. 15" new in the last 4 days and a little more on the way. Looks like I might have to get down there this weekend myself.
