Albuquerque Homes For Sale -New places to eat!


Why is it we always want what we can't have? Human nature I guess. Last year while in Austin,TX with my husband, I was taking a little vacation from selling Albuquerque Real Estate and I had the BEST sandwich I have ever eaten. It was so good we ate there four times in three days. It was a Jimmy John's gourmet sandwich. I knew they did not exist here in Albuquerque, so I had to get my fill. On a trip to Florida this year I researched the nearest Jimmy John's to our hotel. Score!! It was within walking distance (thirty minutes) Well worth the trek! Then this summer we planned to come through Arizona on our way home from a road trip. Yes, we hit up Jimmy John's in Tempe, AZ.

I occasionally crave the #9 Italian Night Club sandwich with the special hot peppers. Yum! My mouth is watering as I type this.
I wonder if I would be drooling right now if I could just drive down the street and get one???

Well, I get to find out this week. Albuquerque gets their first Jimmy John's. The opening is set for Tuesday August 9.
The address is 6650 Holly Ave. NE. Off Paseo Del Norte, between Louisiana and San Pedro. Next door to Five Guys Burgers and just west of the Kohl's dept. store. They even deliver within a five minute drive. Don't worry if you are not within the delivery boundaries. They are supposed to have up to 20 new stores here in New Mexico within the next couple years and you can bet that I will be stopping often when taking a break from showing homes for sale in ABQ.

Who knows?? Next month I may go back to wanting what I can't have. You know what I'm talking about. Yes, that's right!! In-N-Out Burger!!! Maybe the Albuquerque area will get a store someday. A girl can dream can't she?

I know exactly what you mean. When I left my hometown and moved to the beach, there are several restaurants I miss and have to hit when there is any reason to go back.

But we didn't have a Taco Bell there, and the only place was in a little city called Laurinburg, NC which was exactly half way between here and home. Oh, how I cried wanting a Taco bell in Myrtle Beach. Six or seven years ago we got one. I was ecstatic. Ate there about 6-8 times, and now I haven't been in a year. Could care less. I've cried wanting a Sonic on my end of the beach for years. We got one several months ago. I went 3 times. Always we want whatever we don't have. :-)
