Casa Chimayo may as well be called Casa Abuelita. As Guy discovered on DDD, it's like "walking into your grandmother's house." With its heartwarming New Mexican food (and chiles) on every inch of the menu, it's no wonder Guy said the dynamite blue corn chicken enchiladas really hit the spot.
This trip, Guy's hittin' up some joints that are authentic to the bone. In Santa Fe, N.M., the farm-raised Chimayan owner turnin' out traditional dishes like blue corn enchiladas with red chile sauce and chile en nogada. In Portland, Ore., the noodle house cranking out mom's recipes for all kinds of authentic Chinese dishes like won ton soup. And in Albuquerque, N.M., the Italian joint with a native Frenchman at the helm, serving up totally fresh pastas like beef cheek manicotti and squid ink black pasta with calamari.
