The first book to celebrate Santa Fe’s world-famous Plaza Café with stories, mouthwatering photographs, and over ninety recipes from the oldest restaurant in continuous service in one of the oldest cities in America.

Since 1905 the Plaza Café has been serving inspired favorites to Santa Fe locals as well as to destination travelers who seek out the bustling restaurant in the heart of the old city. It’s hard to miss this culinary gem, with its enviable position smack on the central plaza in one of America’s most beautiful and most visited cities. Known for its longtime family ownership, the Plaza Café offers warm hospitality, a casual atmosphere, and reliably mouthwatering home-style American, Mexican, and New Mexican specialties.

Now the Plaza Café Cookbook serves up a winning combination plate of over ninety recipes—from Mexican shakshuka to green chile stew, from blue corn enchiladas to the Café’s famous house margaritas—along with the rich history behind this treasured establishment. The Plaza Café appears on every “best of” Santa Fe list and in travel magazines and websites worldwide. In this first-ever cookbook from the Southwest landmark, four-time James Beard Award–winning author Cheryl Alters Jamison teams with Plaza Café owner Leonardo Razatos, who grew up helping his parents in the Café. With stunning full-color photographs by noted photographer Douglas Merriam, The Plaza Café Cookbook is your guide to re-creating the award-winning, fabulous flavors of Santa Fe at home.
