Restaurant Martin in Santa Fe, New Mexico, was the best place we ate during our recent long trip west. It's classified as "progressive American cuisine," and the chef-owner, Martin Rios, is a longterm resident of Santa Fe who was born in Guadalajara. The location is outside the main tourist area, but in easy walking distance of the central hotels. I was too busy to document our meal there at the time, but now I want to show some of the beautiful and delicious dishes we ate there, in a very charming and relaxing outdoor setting.

Roasted asparagus. The menu offers a very elaborate asparagus dish as a
first course, but I requested asparagus only, which is technically a side dish. |
|
Chilled pea and mint soup with various garnishes. |
|
Duck breast with various vegetables on a bed of duck confit. |
|
Dessert: panna cotta with fruit and sorbet. |

Really like duck breast -- so much flavor. Sounds like a terrific restaurant -- thanks for the heads up!
I would love to visit Santa Fe one day. What a great meal, duck breast is something I've had only once in my life.
All the dishes look so pretty.
Yum,, yum. Have a great week. Cheers from Carole's Chatter
I love the sound of the pea and mint soup. Actually both are in season right now and I just might try coming up with my own version. The restaurant sounds lovely .
Wow, this place looks amazing!! We visited New Mexico about 7 years ago & enjoyed some great food in Santa Fe (and Albuquerque, too). Thanks for the tip!
