Brunch at Doc Martin’s (Taos, NM)

Doc Martin’s sits inside the Historic Taos Inn. It is a well regarded restaurant in Taos, having been in business for over twenty years. Two nights ago, we scarfed down margaritas and chips in Taos Inn’s bar area, Adobe Room. This morning, we decided to do brunch here, served only on the weekends, before heading out of town. We split the Kit Carson (☆☆☆½)—poached eggs over yam biscuits—and fruit plate. The eggs are a sort of meatless Southwestern version of eggs Benedict but for the substitutions of yam biscuits for English muffins and a cheesy sauce for Hollandaise. The biscuits were tender and good, the eggs perfectly poached. The red chile sauce served on the side added flavor and bite.
