The restaurateurs behind Cool Water Fusion, formerly of the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center’s Pueblo Harvest Café and Bakery, use sustainable planning, from the tablecloths (no throwaway paper) to the New Mexico heritage beef and local produce. Shopping daily means waste is kept to a minimum and ingredients are fresh. The chef’s Navajo roots are reflected in the menu, as are his love of “big flavors,” expressed through braises, sauces, salsas and garnishes from the world over. Don’t be surprised to find a roasted corn salsa sharing a plate with beurre blanc or on a boneless Idaho rainbow trout stuffed with crab and wrapped in bacon. But be forewarned: While the names on the menu may be familiar, the chef plays fast and loose with his interpretation of some dishes. For instance, osso buco is made with turkey and garnished with chimichurri. This is, after all, fusion. The menu is a work in progress, as new ingredients and new ideas emerge.

HOW did this place get awarded Best Restaurant of 2010?? [ Sat Nov 27 2010 1:18 PM ]

We tried this place on Thanksgiving for the first time. It was terrible from the moment we walked in. The large tables squeezed into the middle aisle. The restaurant was empty and stayed mostly empty even though we only had one time as a choice for a reservation?? No bread was served with soup or main course. Though the server was nice, she still got items wrong. By only 3pm they had already run out of horseradish potatoes according to the server - BUT most of us actually GOT horseradish potatoes, unfortunately. Stuffing was dry and salty. Osso bucco was odd - more like turkey pot roast. And as hard as it is, they messed up the pumpkin pie. Way too sweet and in a phyllo(??) crust. Very disappointing.

Great Bistro in the NE heights [ Fri May 18 2012 2:06 AM ]

Try this place, it has the the best Cuban sandwich anywhere for lunch! For Dinner I had the best Scallops I've ever had in NM, they claim to have fresh seafood flown in from Seattle seafood...and I believe them! I'm going back next week to try the Fresh Copper River Salmon!
