- In case you missed our last vlog, we are back on the road after quarantining for 3 months in Austin and we’re excited to be back out exploring (safely of course!). Our first stop back on the road was Santa Fe, New Mexico, where we spent a day eating some local foods, like breakfast burritos, carne adovada, chocolate covered peppers, and Frito pie, and wandering around the charming and beautiful downtown area.

did you guys get your 45th booster?
The mountains around Santa Fe are amazing. So many memories up there.
Such a gorgeous area! We hope to go back and do a lot more hiking!
Ayyy. Santa Fe, NM gal right here! I love my home. Downtown and the plaza have always been my favorite place in town. I can't deny the amazing energy here. Especially during fiestas, Christmas and the burning of ZoZobra. The food is always a bonus. I grew up in a traditional Hispanic household and I love the culture and heritage the city brings. I'm so glad you guys had a good time. I hope you come again! Viva La Santa Fe e Nuevo Mexico! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh I bet it’s stunning at Christmas! We absolutely loved the city and cannot wait to come back! ❤️
@@AdventuresofAplusK it is AMAZING at Christmas! The whole plaza is FILLED with lights! It's even more gorgeous with snow. It's never dull during the holidays. It smells like BBQ ribs, green chili and oh...I can't explain it all in words. It's something I look forward to every year. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We are usually in Texas for the holidays so we may have to road trip there. You’ve sold us! Lol!
@@AdventuresofAplusK Santa Fe is looking forward to seeing you again! Have a great day! 💙
You too!
I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN!!! :) STAY SAFE WITH MANY FUN ADVENTURES!
We’re so happy to be back!!! Thanks for watching Nina! ❤️
Santa Fe looks awesome. I hope to go there one day! It’s good to see you back doing what you love❣️
It's such a great city! We really enjoyed the few days we spent there. It feels so good to be back on the road!
Glad you liked our little town and its amazing foods
It is a beautiful city!
So happy to see you back 😊💛 that burrito looks amaaaazing
It was a bombbbb burrito! 🌯 Santa Fe food is right up our alley!
Frito pie looks and sounds amazing. Never heard of it before today. Also, I love how you guys say you 'eat a lot'... I'm always looking at your 2 or 3 tacos and wondering how you're not hungry afterwards!! Looking forward to the hike in the next video 🥾🥾❤️
Hahaha we have definitely slowed down the eating because it started to get super expensive 😅 We were hoping that some people hadn’t heard of Frito Pie before! Glad we could introduce you to a southwestern American classic!
I’m literally in the process of binging all of y’all’s videos !! Love this channel ! Keep up the good work :)
Thank you SO much for watching! 💕
I have the same sign - and so they build a life they loved - in my room! 😅
No way!!! It was a van warming gift from my mom and aunt. We love it! 🥰🥰
It looked like Kona wanted a bite of the Frito Pie too! I love watching y’all, the way you describe what you’re eating makes me so hungry. Stay safe on the road!
Hahaha she definitely did! I tried to sneak her a plain Frito 😜
Wow. Really beautiful communities.
Such a gorgeous city! 😍
Great video n as Santa Fe 💕 good job on the van Frito pie. The classic is a classic n Plaza area treat. Happy travels
Thank you so much Dale! The van Frito pie was dang good and we can’t wait to try the real thing someday!
Enjoyed and now hungry!!😊🍁
We’re glad you enjoyed our first adventure back on the road! 🥰
Nice! Food looks awesome!
It is such a great food city! 😋😋
Great video! Just the right mix of funny and informative. I really hope that I someday get to visit Santa Fe.
Thanks Zach! We hope you can too!
Fantastic video guys...your camera work is spot on!!! Definitely looks like a place I’d enjoy visiting! Your making my mouth water with all that good food! Also I’ve never heard of frito pie but it looks delicious!’ 🤤
We’re so glad to introduce you to Frito Pie! You’ll have to try it out and let us know how you like it 🙌🏼
Santa Fe looks yummy!
It definitely is!
Chilli an chocolate that sounds ridiculously good , 2 mins in you guys got me pausing the video and raiding the fridge 😱, that looks a beautiful city 👌
It was such a good combo! They say salty and sweet is good, but spicy and sweet may be right up there! We hope you found something good in your fridge 😜
Ahhhh good to see you again on the food :) :) I want a new breakfast, but a burrito now !
Hahahah we wish we could virtually send you a breakfast burrito! It was so dang good 😋
Santa Fe is an absolutely great foodie Mecca. An then you start with the Pantry one of our favorite places for breakfast.
We’re so glad you love the Pantry too! What do you like to get there?
Adventures of A plus K My wife enjoys the the yogurt and fruit and for me traditional American Breakfast, but watching your review, I will definitely try the traditional breakfast next trip. Did you try the Plaza Cafe on the Plaza in downtown Santa Fe? The posole is to die for! One more recommendation, in Las Vegas, New Mexico, Charli’e Spic and Span Bakery: Great Green Chilli Cheese Burger and Donuts to boot!
We didn't have a chance to try the Plaza Cafe, but we have a very strong feeling we will be back to Santa Fe! A Green Chili Cheeseburger sounds AMAZING!
I love you guys are gluten free, I am looking forward to try all food you guys mentioned soon in Santa Fe
Enjoy them for us! I do sometimes cheat on my GF diet, but I try to make it clear in videos if I am 😄
Good to see you guys back on the road! I’m in Iowa and we have “Walking Tacos” which are similar. Nacho chips (small bag! 🤣), ground beef, and taco fixings of your choice. They’re so yummy!
Oh my gosh that sounds amazing! 🤤 We will need to try this ASAP!
Here to comment the same thing! I can’t believe people never heard of walking tacos we make it at least once a week at my house!
Been to Sante Fe a couple of times and the last time was in October with a girlfriend. Some things were closed like the church so my girlfriend didn't get to see inside. : ( But we had some awesome food and there were some shops that were still open. Your frito pie is what we called a walking taco when we did cub scouts with our kids! They were always good and they would walk around with the snack size bag of fritos and the hamburger mixture. Great memories.
Santa Fe is so gorgeous! We're glad you were able to still have some fun there despite closures. Walking taco is a fun name for frito pie!
I love you guys!!, We went to Palo Duro Canyon as part of our getaway summer vacation! Would never have found those special palo duro caves without you!! Then while in Santa Fe I had to stop and get the chocolate covered peppers! We are living in the Rio Grande Valley near McAllen full time now but originally from Boerne, Texas!
Ah yay! So happy you got to visit the caves, they are definitely tucked away! And that you got to try the peppers. We hope y'all had a great trip!
Thank you! We’re still tripping! In ruidoso now then on to white sands and then Hueco tanks state park before heading home!
I loved the Frito's pie... It's such a NM thing 😂 never heard of it before
Oh my gosh they are SO good! 😍
I live in NM and had noooo idea Frito Pie was unheard of!!! I'm completely shocked right now. Wuttt???
Glad you both got to see a bit of town. We haven't tried the Pantry. Unfortunately, we're back to almost 100% lockdown. BUT, here's a suggestion for your next trip. Maybe you've already been there. If you enjoy a picnic head for the Valles Caldera on NM Hwy 4. Tracy and I go there to picnic, plus theres a ranger station and an old movie set there. beautiful drive from US 550 on the SW end and from Los Alamos on the east side. T/S
Thank you so much for the tips! We hope to make it back to New Mexico once it's safe to and there are no restrictions and explore a lot more!
Since you guys always have food in your vids and make me hungry, I waited 'til dinner time to watch this so I could eat with y'all! haha
Hahahahah I love it! We’re glad we could join you for dinner. We hope you ate something delicious! 😋
@@AdventuresofAplusK I know you guys have ties to Texas, more specifically, Houston, as do I. I was born and raised here in Houston and lived here my whole life, but that's about to change! I just bought my fifth wheel and will be hitting the road full time in the next month or so. So maybe I'll bump into y'all on the road sometime. On a side note, too bad y'all missed out on Meow Wolf cause it's a pretty cool experience. I'm about editing my video of Meow Wold and should have it posted SOONish.
Ah no way, congrats on hitting the road! Where are you headed? And we are so bummed to miss Meow Wolf. Let us know when your video is live so we can experience it virtually 😃
@@AdventuresofAplusK I'll be making smaller weekend trips for the next few months so I can get familiar with towing my RV and also learning all the ins and out of it. Once I'm comfortable I'll start venturing out on some bigger trips. As for destinations, there are too many to name, haha. But it will be decided based on the time of year because I want to avoid colder climates. It will also depend on how things pan out with COVID.
We totally understand that! It's good to do some test trips before going all in-you'll learn a lot! We did not do that and got stuck without hot water and the ability to use our stove for a month haha
Discovered your channel a couple of days ago, and really enjoy it. Next time you visit Santa Fe, go to 108 East Palace. Learn the history of that address by reading the book of the same name. Then head to Los Alamos where you can learn even more about what went on in that area during WWII, and its tie in with 108 E. Palace.
Thank you so much for the tips and for watching! 😄
you need to come back to Santa Fe!
We really want to!
Love watching you guys! You two always make really fun videos. The breakfast burritos and frito pie look incredible. I need to visit Santa Fe someday!
Thank you so much for watching Brandon! It was a veryyyy delicious day and we hope you get to visit someday!
@@AdventuresofAplusK You're welcome! And thank you! :)
Beautiful small city. I want to go there and Taos:)
Both were so beautiful! The mountains in Taos were 😍😍
Adventures of A plus K as an artist, the colors are so beautiful and the mood of the area.....very doable.
We loved all of the colors, the architecture, and the way the green trees and Pueblo architecture went together. Absolutely beautiful!
Good job on the frito pie, our chile in Santa Fe comes from Las Cruces and other parts of Southern NM as the climate in NM does not condone good chile harvests. You fell into the tourist trap with Pantry! There's so many other better places! Kakawa is a great place good call there!
We love us a good tourist trap sometimes! It was solid and we’d eat those pantry fries over and over again 🤤
I just discovered y’all today, I watched the little Havana video because I’m going to Miami soon. But how do y’all stay so fit with all the delicious food you eat !!? 😁😁😁😁
Hahahah that’s a very popular question 🤣 We try to only eat out or eat unhealthy when we are filming (which is 1-2 days a week) and we eat super boring and healthy + workout the other days!
Adventures of A plus K ohhhhh well that make sense !! Thanks for a sincere answer I’m watching all of y’all videos right now I love these videos I’m definitely a fan now! Y’all have a great weekend ❤️
We definitely go HARD when filming because after eating the same 3-4 things over and over we are so excited to get something extra tasty! 😋😋
And thank you so much for watching! ❤️❤️❤️
🙌🙌🖒🌊
🌶🌶🌶
You do realize, you have the best van. Better than Kara and Nates, and the endless adventures lol 😂. Santa Fe looks cool 👍😎
Hahaha thanks Don! Kara and Nate’s is actually the same layout as ours, but slightly different from what we can tell 😃
thank A+K
Have you Ben to bandialer monument? Last I checked it was open.
We wanted to visit, but no doggos are allowed and the daytime temps were a bit too hot to leave Kona 😔 We hope to make it back to NM in some cooler months!
We are going to be at partial hookups because of the weather.
Hope your both well ,we are from England and currently in Santa Fe on vacation may I ask you what was the name of the large hill you walked up in the evening please we love you both that's why we're in Santa Fe now xx
Neil & Ann Cooper x
Hi! We don’t recall walking up any hills in this video or during our time in Santa Fe. We did go to Taos at the end of this day and filmed a video there the next day and hiked the highest point in the state, Wheeler Peak, but that was a different video. Sorry that isn’t more helpful. We hope you have a great trip!
Xmas :)
Try “Tostilocos”.
Had to Google those and woahhh they sound good!!!
A little sour cream on that Frito Pie would put it over the top!!
😋😋
We love Tillamook products....
Tillamook is awesome! Have you been to their factory? We haven’t yet, but really want to!
@@AdventuresofAplusK No but Brad Leone on Bon Appetite took a tour, pretty cool
Ong I can't believe you guy's didn't go to Tia Sophia's... sad for you guys.
*OMG
It's hard to do it all :(
You are right! Just wished you guys could have tasted the wonders of Tia Sophia's. The Pantry is pretty good too... when I was pregnant with my first son I gained so much weight eating at the Pantry. :D
FIRST
👏🏼🥇🏆
THE COST OF SANTA FE IS WAY WAY OVER INFLATED YOU BRING SOME BIG MONEY WITH AND BRING A JOB WITH YOU IF YOU ARE WORKING CLASS ALL YOU WILL BE WORKING FOR IS RENT VISIT SANTA FE DO NOT MOVE THERE
Its amazing & pitiful that some people havent heard of frito pie 🥣
Totally agree! It was a staple in my (Adam) house growing up!
