Eat This Now – CARLITO’S Steak-Stuffed Sopaipilla
This seared steak stuffed smothered sopaipilla was satisfyingly substantial sufficient to send this sage of a scribacious sadogue singing praises to its salubriousness.
That, and we really liked it.
Deep rich, smoky and peppery, it is a pure evocation of the New Mexican Anaheim red chile pepper, in an envelope of thick Navajo fry bread that is addictive in its own right — especially when smothered in red.
It costs 7 bucks.
Just thought you’d like to know.

Restaurant reviews, quips, picks and pans-with some seriously salivating history-from the man who eats his way through Sin City every day.

That looks really good and I look forward to trying it, after I finish working my way through the menu at Mundo whose level of quality has astonished me . I’m glad Las Vegas is finally starting to move away from the crap mexican/tex-mex places that infest this city. Now to find some good ceviche…..

Yum! I spent two years in New Mexico, and every once in a while I get a craving for some really good red chile sauce. This will definitely fit the bill!

There is not a finer New Mexican restaurant in the state.

They are not honoring restaurant.com certificates for over 3 months yet are still selling them online. It’s just wrong.
