Culinary Destinations

Guests who come to B&B's in Taos expect something more than the "toaster breakfast" served at local motels.  It's a given.  

Those that stay at La Posada de Taos also tend to have very refined palettes.  When they eat away from home, for example, they frequent fine dining establishments.

It's also a given that the cost of that breakfast is included in the price of your room.  Not so everywhere in Taos.  One boutique Inn that TripAdvisor.com ranks among the tops in Taos charges extra if you want the Innkeeper to serve breakfast.  Of course, Trip Advisor doesn't know or care about that.  Guests are on their own to find out whether that B&B actually provides both "B's" as part of its inclusive services.

From the very beginning of our time here at La Posada de Taos, we decided that our guests deserved the best we could offer.  We immediately focused on both "B's:  the beds and the breakfasts.  I'll save the story of our incredible linens for later, but I just wanted to introduce you to a few of our culinary creations.

Breakfast at La Posada de Taos always begins with cut fresh fruit, organic yogurt and our signature housemade granola.  This simple beginning sets the stage for a wholesome, hearty breakfast.  The first course is always accompanied by a variety of fruit juices such as our favorite Blueberry Pomegranate juice or orange juice.

 But what is breakfast without something baked fresh in the oven each day?  We're not talking store-bought muffins here.  And we're definitely not talking about anything prepared from a mix.  Nope.  At La Posada de Taos our chefs had determined that the only way our guests are going to enjoy their breakfast from beginning to end is that the baked item be made completely from scratch.  The housemade delicacies vary from day to day, but typically include a housemade blueberry muffin or a made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuit.  Yum!

Michael Carter, our own "Breakfast Guru," next prepares an entree that our guests always find memorable.  The Breakfast Tostada pictured below is an example.  The photo pretty much shows the makings of the dish:  corn tortilla, black beans, cheese, poached egg, corn chip strips, and a small avocado and tomato side. It's hearty, it's healthy and it's just one part of the well-balanced meal that our chef will prepare each and every day for our guests.

I'll focus more on the incredible entrees and baked items in future posts.  We hope you get to come and enjoy breakfast with us some day.  It's always a memorable meal.
