5 /5 Robin Gray: Okay, so... Moving cross-country during early spring of 2020 was a challenge. Lots of (or, actually, MOST) restaurants and hotels were closed. But even then, I made SURR to swing through Sierra Blancas La Familia Cafe (using their tiny/temporary "drive through" window.
Granted, each time I visited, I had to scarf my meal in my car/truck/moving truck. So I have never actually been inside. But hey...! The fact they were making such an awesome effort to keep ME fed during a hectic time. Not just hectic for me... But like, the whole world!
So, I pass along this gift to you... If you are en route between Arizona and (in my case) North Carolina... Or anywhere nearby... Pick up a wholly satisfying meal. More than once, this Cafe boosted my morale. And kept me rolling.
Their limited Covid menu was just... Like, seriously, such a bright spot. Especially because the cross-country trips HAD to happen. And for an out-of-towner trying to find a good meal while traveling solo? Oh! And on one trip, I had my dad with me. He ordered the burger... Which he still says was "one of the best" of his life. And I would have asked for a bite... But he was simply enjoying it WAY too much to interfere.
I am NOT looking forward to yet ANOTHER cross-country trip. But if I do, I am excited to visit the actual Cafe.
