"We had dinner at The Artichoke cafe in Albuquerque en route from skiing at Taos back home to New Jersey. What a wonderful delight! Service is so warm, personable and efficient. Our waiter described the dishes perfectly, recommended choices, and added the delightfully fun touch to the overall experience! Thank you, Sam! Food is scrumptious. Every dish is a perfect symphony of flavors. Cream of mushroom soup is a delicate blend of earthy mushroom tastes in a smooth base. Duck breast bypassed my favorite one at a Hudson valley restaurant near CIA (Culinary institute of America) the spice rub on the skin adds a flavorful burst. And the lamb ragout is perfect exploding with flavors and textures, with a bit of heat and a cool touch of whipped ricotta. And the orange cardamom creme brûlée is a perfect finish to any meal!"
