Our second night here we headed several miles north of the opera house for dinner at GABRIEL's where I had not been for decades. It is a quaint indooro/outdoor venue with that Sante Fe/Tex-Mex feel. Margaritas are a must and Will had the Silver Coin with Cointreau while I had the Picante with jalapenos. YUM! The chips and spicy red salsa are horridly addictive and beware, the portion sizes are beyond grande!
We both ordered the Tortilla Soup and here it is a veggie based one with cabbage, zucchini, potato, onion, avocado, chard and more and the giant bowl had to have way more than a quart of soup! Will's beef burrito was monstrous and came with chile, refried beans, rice, corn and crema. My Crab Enchiladas were loaded with crab ina green tomatillo salsa with sour cream, black beans and corn on the side; I sadly could not get though much more than half of it.
Tonight, dinner at the opera and tomorrow we head into town.
