Love to eat


Amarillo, Texas.

I have to start out in Amarillo with the best place to eat.

Cafe Marizon, at 705 S. Polk St., is one of my all time favorites.
Phone: 805-374-3058

A good place to eat has to have more than food. It has to have character, staff and an owner who cares.

Scott Camarata owns the cafe with his wife Shana. We eat there a lot and Scott is an very friendly, outgoing, and
gracious individual. His staff is always friendly, work to give you a good experience and the food is very good.

The walls are loaded with old photos of early Amarillo, old hat boxes and other things that five it character and
an atmosphere that allows you to relax, enjoy and not feel rushed.

Check it out and you'll become a fan too.

Ruidoso, New Mexico.

A couple trips ago we found "Cornerstone Bakery" at 359 Sudderth Drive.
Phone: 575-257-1842

Sue Detrick is the managing partner and she's a treat all by herself.

The food is beyond good and when my wife, Judy, asked for a change on an order, she was told
"I can do it, but it might look pretty."

The chief not only prepares great food but he's concerned about how it looks. He doesn't have to worry, becasue
it doesn't stay as a piece of artwork very long. It's mmmm good.

I'm a desert freak, so to speak. I believe in the saying "eat desert first" even if I don't do that. Their pies are mouth watering, got to have more good and the crust is from another planet. It's so good!

Give Sue a hello and be prepared to eat so much you're stuffed.

Ask her how she ended up in Ruidoso?

While in Ruidoso check out "In-Ka-Hoots" at 1203 Sudderth Drive. It's owned by Pat and John Sellers.
Phone: 575-257-8082

Shancee the Shih-Tzu is the "greeter."

I've only met John and he's as nice of a man as you'll ever come across.

Their place is a haven for jewelry, home decor, western art, antiques, gift items, floral and etc. It's a nice, neat, well laid out, and very comfortable place.

Unlike most men, I like to look (called shop - I have no problem with my masculinity) and being an artist, I'm always interested in good art. They have it.
