COMIDAS DE NUEVO MEXICO













Comidas de Nuevo Mexico As you wander through this large mercantile store you will find many specials better known in these parts as "gotta havits".
They make up the woven gift baskets with whatever you want and add a small Indian vase or something else from their collection. You would fend well if you take a minute and peruse the menus, for there are items you might miss, JERKY 35 varieties,
piƱatas, baskets, all the fruit, candy and nuts.

The editor of this blog has seen "Dream Catchers" from many American Indian Nations and the display and choices here are among the best he has ever seen.

There are plenty choices of sweets, and snacks for you to enjoy and wet your pallet till you get home. May you always find room for chocolate candies as well as the other goodies you will find here.

Looking for something different in the gifts? See the Indian and Mexican rugs and placemats. The very best piano seat cover is an Indian saddle blanket.

Come back and see us! Ya hear?

Where is this? It sounds wonderful, but where is it?

We just went there, did a little Google to see if they have a web site & found this posting. The address is 915 California Avenue, Socorro, NM. Shares a parking lot with Smith's supermarket and Denny's restaurant.

They take phone orders for mail delivery. Call 575-838-3825. I can't live without my green chili ....... even in Maine!

They are wonderful.

The beef jerky is great, but the guy who runs this place is extremely rude.

Every time I drive to Albuquerque I make this Socorro store a necessary stop. I have shopped there for over 10 years and the owner is friendly and fun to talk to. He always remembers me and what I like. the meat is great, and he always has something new and tasty to try.

They have lots of interesting things, all very good quality. I was there last year and purchased lots of blue corn meal which is excellent! Only problem was they were closed when I visited this year.
