Our new mugs! In anticipation of the Route 66 Centennial this coming year, we had new mugs made by local potter Kyle Roberts. The two-tone blue and white reminds me of a 1957 Chevy Bel Air!

We love tamales any time of the year, but especially at Christmas! El Modelo has the best tamales in Albuquerque. There's a storefront order counter, and behind it is a huge warehouse full of ranges simmering with meat and red sauce, steel tables, and a LOT of people making tamales.
