This morning, Rodge & I finally made it over to
@505chicknegg , the newest concept from Chef Enrique Guerrero, the culinary force behind the award-winning
@bang_bite One of my favorite parts of my day is getting to know the people behind the restaurants, & Enrique’s story is one worth hearing. His career has taken him through some of the country’s most celebrated kitchens before ultimately deciding to build something that reflected his own vision. Rather than chasing another fine dining dining room, he chose to create a place where exceptional food, genuine hospitality, & community could all come together in a more personal way.
Spending the morning talking with Enrique made breakfast even more meaningful. His enthusiasm for this new venture is contagious, & it’s clear that every detail has been thoughtfully considered. From the house-made Japanese milk buns to the scratch-made recipes throughout the menu, this is comfort food backed by decades of culinary experience.
Our breakfast sandwiches and burritos and sweet potato fries were exceptional—beautifully prepared, full of flavor, & the perfect reminder that great cooking isn’t defined by white tablecloths. It’s defined by the person behind the food.
One detail I especially loved is that Chicken or the Egg sits right next to
@bitcoffee_santafe , making it easy to grab a beautifully crafted coffee or specialty drink to enjoy with your breakfast or lunch. The shaded picnic tables tucked behind the truck make it the kind of place you’ll want to settle into rather than rush away from.
Congratulations, Enrique, on another exciting chapter. I have no doubt Chicken or the Egg will become one of those places people discover once & find themselves returning to again and again. More surprises are on the way too! 🤫
