February 13, 2013 12:05 pm

Tucked in a courtyard just off the plaza in charming Old Town Albuquerque, La Crepe Michel offers authentic French cuisine with reasonable prices and friendly service. Chef Claudie Zamet-Wilcox’s culinary expertise runs to more than just crepes, although they are by all accounts divine. Crepes can be savory, filled with luscious combinations of seafood, meat, cheese and vegetables, or sweet – try the one filled with chocolate mousse.Daily specials offer dishes like Marmite du Pecheur (stew with fresh fish, shellfish and tomatoes) and Filet de Boeuf (beef tenderloin with Roquefort cheese or black peppercorn cream sauce). Pair your entrée with one of their great authentic French wines for the perfect meal at La Crepe Michel!

Buffett’s Candies: Indulge Your Sweet Tooth at this Albuquerque Favorite

February 6, 2013 12:04 pm

Buffett’s Candies is an Albuquerque landmark known as much for its homemade sweets as for its retro 50s red and white exterior festooned with a 50-foot striped candy cane. They’ve been making candy in this spot on Central Avenue since George Buffett started the business in 1956 – and he’s still running it 55 years later. Buffett’s is treasured for their delectable pinion candy made with the nut of local trees, but their assortment of chocolate creams, toffees, brittles, and roasted nuts are also favorites. Their motto — “Our candy is made to eat, not to keep!” — states their commitment to using the freshest ingredients without preservatives. Visit their store for a trip back in time, or order online through their website to have it delivered to you in the near future!
