Dining

For breakfast, dine at Taos Diner, a local’s spot we uncovered by accident. The Charles breakfast burrito (with bacon, eggs, tomato, and feta cheese) or Copper John’s Eggs (with green chiles and cheese) will satisfy you through the day. A must: the homemade biscuits. www.taosdiner.com or (575) 758-2374.

Our favorite for lunch is Graham’s Grille, a modern little spot in the heart of town. Start with the rich and creamy corn-and-crab chowder. www.grahamstaos.com or (575) 751-1350.

On the historic Taos Plaza in the Hotel la Fonda de Taos, Joseph’s Table rivals some of the best restaurants in the country and is a priority for an evening meal. www.josephstable.com or (575) 751-4512.

Another great dinner spot, De la Tierra at El Monte Sagrado is not only known for its amazing cuisine, but also for its architecture. www.elmontesagrado.com or (575) 737-9855.
