One of the coolest places to eat downtown in ABQ... is the Frontier Restaurant.

Located on Route66 (Central Ave)... this local eatery has been in business since 1971.

It is a fabulous place ... with tons of cowboy art... wagon wheels... even old guns on the walls.

And the food? Well... I like the breakfast burrito myself, covered in green chile, a side of fries... and a large fresh squeezed OJ.

This place is legendary, and has been on "Diner's Drive-Ins and Dives"...

and most recently on "Man VS. Food"...

Plus... ya gotta give the people watching factor a 5 Star Rating!

And this last photo... is a photo I took of one of the bronze sculptures inside the restaurant.

I cropped it close... and added a layer of the sky over-top of it...

I thought it gave it a sort of "Ghost Riders in the Sky"... kind of effect...
