    This super cute El Paso snack and souvenir gift shop was one of my last stops in Texas before…read moreheading home to CA :) ! It really is such a gem tucked away in the city in a very humble and simple outdoor shopping center, but certainly worth stopping by :) ! I had Googled the best souvenir shops close to my hotel and "So El Paso" popped up on my search ! I am so glad I stopped by here because they truly have some of the most thoughtful and meaningful gifts you can give anyone, whether you are a local to the area :) ! Or whether you're like me - a tourist who wants to bring back something thoughtful and meaningful to family and friends back home in CA :) ! I specifically wanted quality souvenirs that are really unique to the area or region :D ! I met the owner and also one of her employees :) ! Both of them were really friendly and warm ! The owner told me that she is originally from El Paso, but had lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for about 20 years before coming back to El Paso :) ! If I had heard correctly, I believe her employee told me that this store has been open since 2020. I purchased some Mexican candied cocoa pecans, some churro cookies, and some margarita powder mixes :D ! I purchased some Mexican spice cocoa pecans, some churro cookies, and some margarita powder mixes :D ! So far, I have only tasted the Mexican spice cocoa pecans, which are delicious :) ! I haven't tried the churro cookies and the margarita mixes yet :) ! But I plan to gift some of these to family and friends :) ! They also have nice holiday gift sets that are beautifully wrapped and ready to gift :D ! When I was shopping there yesterday, there was a customer there who seemed to be ordering in bulk for a group of people :) ! She was carefully choosing items to purchase as she was conversing with the owner :) ! So for sure, these are wonderful items you can gift to individuals or huge groups :D ! I wll definitely be back the next time I visit the west side in El Paso :) ! The owner and her employee really go the extra mile to take care of you and your needs :D !

    OMG SUCH PERSONAL CARE!! If I could give them 100 stars I would!!! The staff asked me who I was…read moreshopping for and what would they like. They they pointed out what they had on sale.... not overly marked up like most places... plus I got a super veterans discount! And take a look at the personal gift wrapping for my kiddo in their fav color!!!!

    Great place to stop in Hatch to stock up on roasted green hatch chilis, or bushels of the reds. I…read morewas just passing through without a cooler on this trip so I grabbed a few pieces of metal sculpture art and a couple of bags of green chili powder and left with a big smile on my face. The staff are all very friendly and eager to answer any questions you might have. I've been here several times over the years and each time I go I feel like I should have grabbed more of their unique art and amazing chili peppers.

    It was luckily the right season, great timing, so we decided to stop in while nearby, and wow it…read morewas worth it. The magnificent truth is, Hatch New Mexico has the best chili peppers in the world. And I don't mean they have to be hot, although that can be a good thing, the taste is inexplicable, beyond expression, very unique and also extraordinary. The smell alone of fresh chili, and the aroma of fire roasting peppers, and the incredible volume of the cosecha is unparalleled. These folks make incredible salsas and powders with their chilis - hmmm good! As you gaze upon ristra after ristra of chili peppers dangling from the girders, and laying on the trays, or scattered among the displays and even in your hands - you can't be but astonished at the flavor and fragrance that abound around you. Everything roasted or sun-dried Hatch Chili is here. From whole chilis, powdered chili, edible, ornamental and utilitarian ristras - this place is simply fascinating. Just in case you're wondering, not all Hatch Peppers are hot, hot, hot! They come is Mild), Medium (Big Jim), Hot (Sandia), extra Hot (Barker), double extra Hot (Lumbre) and the triple extra Hot (Lumbre). Personally, I can't recommend Lumbre - yes, I've tried it. And just in case you're not prone to taking some peppers with you like we did for our freezer, chile food products, accessories, books and some miscellaneous merchandise to remember them by. Chile Fanatic is worth the stop when Hatch. Most recommended.

    Doc encouraged me to get out of the car cuz I love Black Hills Gold jewelry. Begrudgingly I did…read moreand of course she was right cuz I did make a purchase. I looked at a BHG hummingbird earrings but I didn't want to spend over $200. I did buy the tiniest BHG earrings, an Indian design ring, a copper hoop earrings and a bundle of sage. The white buffalo jewelry looked nice but the pieces were larger than I'd like. 3+ hours more til we reach Tucson. Let's get on the road again.

    Yes we got suckered into going here by the billboards. We all know the billboards as we are driving…read moredown I-10 and there is about 10 billboards advertising the many different travel plazas in southern New Mexico. I actually never stopped at one of these before because when I was younger my grandparents always flew through New Mexico and never would stop for anything. What made me stop this time around? Because my boyfriend saw that billboard for the desert bot which too him looked too much like a transformer so like a child he begged me to stop so he can see the robot. I'm not gonna lie, the robot was pretty good and he has his own little merch going on there. The billboard mentioned homemade cookies, which I actually did try and while they may not be world famous, they taste really good for gas station cookies. Their snack selection is pretty limited and their drink selection you will miss it if your not actively looking for it. It definitely wasn't crowded and the workers there were friendly. You do have to pay pretty far from the cashier though so don't be shocked if your cashier is at the register and your two counters away checking out. Overall its a nice stop and I recommend if the kiddos are acting up, to stop here and let them see the desert transformer.
