Settling in
We’ve been in New Mexico 4 months now and the time has been filled with exploring and discovering many of the things Albuquerque and New Mexico have to offer. Here’s one of them.
Pros Ranch Market
Albuquerque has many of the grocery stores familiar to us and which we favor: Trader Joe’s, Sunflower Market, Whole Foods, and the commissary. And there are some choice stores unique to Albuquerque, such as Kellers Farm Stores which offers excellent meats including a large selection of sausages among them ‘green chilli turkey’ and many “exotics” such as bison, elk, venison, pheasant, and more.
But my favorite is Pros Ranch Market, a supermarket gone Hispanic. It is a very festive place and always busy. All labels are in both languages – Spanish and English, and it helps if one speaks some Spanish. They have produce that one won’t find at Safeway such as nopales (from prickly pear cactus pads), jicama, posole, menudo, and many other uniquely Mexican foods. And ‘la cocina’ serves good eats, with a Mexican flair of course.

Love It!
Looks like good eats. You always were partial to good Mexican food.
