Fodor's Expert Review Daily Pie Cafe
The entry to this homey spot sports a hand-painted sign proclaiming "Home cooking on the great divide." And so it is. Owner-chef Michael Rawls enjoys his work, and locals and visitors appreciate his culinary skills. First check the Daily Pie Chart—consider the signature New Mexican apple pie (piñon nuts and green chile make it special) or seasonal peach walnut crumb—before you fill up on the main course side of the menu. Daily Pie opens early in the morning and usually closes by 3. Trusty breakfast and lunch dishes (and an occasional Friday-night special) include good tomato-onion-cheese omelets and burritos packed with ham, eggs, and cheese. There's a sweet cabin for rent out back (daily or longer).
