We have eaten at Valle Luna a few times although it was a few years ago, we liked it then very much. It is in Chandler but not sure how close to where you are.

Sadies is good. I like their homemade potato chips.  Was disappointed when they closed their place that was in the Casino.
The one that is in their now (Casino owned) is not near as good.

Hot Tamales is very good too.

You should have said you were stopping in Albuquerque.
I could have made pizza for you and Kristen.

Sorry, that would have been wonderful, but we are not real good company after 560 miles in the truck!

The original Serrano's is a few miles East at downtown Chandler, Chandler Blvd and Country Club ( Rt 87). Very good Sonoran -style menu. The Chili Colorado is great. serranosaz.com

Nando's Mexican Cafe is not very far away. I've eaten there several times and it's fairly good.

Went through Ponca City...just had to drop in a say hi to Stewart at Cookshack...Unfortunately he was in a Zoom meeting.  I just poked my head around the corner to see him.  I am pretty sure he had no idea who I was!    :pig:  I told the gal at the front to jut let him know that Bentley from the ole Pellethead days dropped in and maybe he would remember! 

A few shots of the Plant!  I think an FEC 300, 750 and 2 welding stations.  1st time I had ever been there!!

Visited there two years ago, and first thing noted was that parts were precut but all was assembled by hand. No automated setup noted.  Previously, someone on this or the old "heads" c/o scratches internally on his new 500.  I suspect it was due to the hand assembly as I watched the assembler work.  Actually a badge of honor that it is hand built.  Nice people. A bit slow to add new advances i.e. WiFi. True believers in "if it aint broke, etc".   Still intrigued by the 500.  :clap:

Sadie's in East? Albuquerque, right off I-40.  Kristin's Taco salad, good, 2 cons for me is hot beef with lettuce.  I always make mine with room temperature GB, and we like a Catalina or Country French for dressing!



They had no traditional for me combo plates, so I went fish taco.  Very good, this was good cod!  Sopapilla were so so, to cold by end of meal to be good with the honey!  But I guess for many they are jut like a dinner roll or biscuit and are eaten with meal!





Surprised you did not eat at Enriques at the Ponca Airport (adjacent to Cookshack area). It is right in the terminal and produces gourmet quality Tex Mex. We occ. fly up there just for lunch (and the adventure--my daughter is pilot).
