Downtown Quemado has quite a few improvements lately, including the grand re-opening of the Largo Motel (575-773-4686) on Route 60. With a total of 20 brand new rooms built from the ground up, this will be a great place for your friends to hang their hats when they come to visit. Don’t forget to tell them about the green chili cheeseburgers they cook up at the Largo Cafe next door, which is sporting a revamped faade. There’s also construction underway for a new gas station and convenience store in town. You’ll be able to pull in and fill up your tank by Spring 2009.
Hungry? You’ll want to try the new menu at El Serape Cafe (575-773-4620). Owner, Kim, has also done a fantastic job of redecorating the restaurant with a warm, down-home touch. The breakfast, lunch and dinner menu is more than finger lickin’ good it’s great! Do your taste buds a favor and try her giant quesadilla and don’t forget to leave some room for a slice of pie…
