After working in Greece for a few years, chef-owner Greg Menke decided to take what he learned about Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food back to New Mexico, and this unexpected fusion restaurant was born. Guy was blown away by the Steak Shawarma: Beef is marinated for three days in a tangy yogurt sauce before it’s grilled and stuffed in a pita with house-made hummus, cucumber salad, daikon radish sprouts, beets and their unique quinoa tabbouleh. The sandwich is finished with tahini and a New Mexican green chile sauce. “This is way more than a sandwich, it gave me goose bumps,” Guy said of the dish.
Guy Fieri's heading out to grab flavor from far and wide. In Santa Fe, N.M., a Southwest-Middle Eastern quick stop slingin' the shawarma and salmon souvlaki. In Kansas City, Mo., a funky joint serving up outrageous Scandinavian specialties, and in El Paso, Texas, a family-run tortilla factory turning out top-notch tamales and tostadas.
