    I can't even begin to tell you that David has driven us through the entire state of Oklahoma…read more Through the back roads, corn fields and very dry agricultural areas. Today was no exception. We had some time so we left the Guyon OK and headed toward New Mexico. So we are always looking for a place to eat lol! We ended up going through the town of Boise, then on to Clayton NM. I found Mary's Back Porch on Yelp and it was the only place open in town that we could find. It is totally eclectic! Flowers. bric a brac- even a cockatoo when you walk in. We walked to the back and there were a few tables covered in red checkered table cloths. Ruby the server and all around go to person, brought us menus. I had a chicken salad sandwich on Sourdough and a cup of. Poblano cheese soup. The soup was excellent and I didn't care for the chicken salad because it was on the sweeter tasting side. Dave had the brisket quesadilla and corn chips with salsa. His was delicious as was my soup. It's sad to see a town where hardly any businesses can survive. We thank Mary and Ruby for keeping us from starving lol! Good company and good food!

    Best meal in Clayton Brisket quesadillas with sweet tea-…read moreexcellent. Upon leaving by the FRONT DOOR, we met Mary. Kudos for a home cooked meal nicely done. Mary runs the gift shop and shared how during Covid she/husband opened this add-on. Thank you
