Cancelled the fancy, overpriced dinner after @Palmer was all too correct about Sedona as a tourist trap. I love the countryside, love the resort, but the town reminded me of Estes Park, CO and it turned me off the dinner. So we went to Cottonwood and had some wine and salumi at Maynard James Keenan’s (of TOOL) Merkin tasting room and osteria.
The filth doesn’t stop with the name “Merkin,” there was a wine called “The Diddler” and even the barrels have glory holes.
Anyway then we found the OTHER good restaurant in Sedona that was booked out for eternity and got there at opening to sneak a couple of bar seats. Fantastic meal at Elote.
A flight of El Jolgorio and a dram of a very limited mezcal of theirs made my night. Just fantastic spirits across the board. Something about that Tepeztate always gets me.
Elote, nopales salad, Niman Ranch smoked brisket enchiladas, and buffalo mole poblano all excellent as were the chips and salsa.
And we got to see Santa!

Only Maynard would name his restaurant after a pubic wig [emoji23]

Best burger ever. This pop up out here called Snipeburger makes this crazy smash burger that is undefeated. I can come close but man oh man it’s soooo good.
