March 2021 Visited the Ysleta Mission Gift Shop for a Yelp Elite Perk. Visiting was the perfect…read more"getaway" from the usual monotonous work week. I happened to visit during one of the El Paso March month mega windy days, I was surprised to enter the gift shop and meet the most pleasant gift shop staff member. She was bilingual and was very knowledgeable. Surprisingly (after living in the El Paso area for over 4 years) I had never been to that area of town. I didn't know there was a Casino nor a church, gift shops etc. The staff member explained Ysleta Mission is the oldest Mission in the state of Texas. Founded in 1682. That specific piece of information grew my interest for the area because I love history and now I feel silly all this years I didn't know about it. The Yelp Elite Perk consisted of cool Yelp goodies and a beautifully hand painted wood box. The attention to detail to the hand painted box filled me with joy. I fell in love with Ysleta Mission Gift Shop. Everything in the gift shop is absolutely beautiful. The cool thing is that they have a website ( www.ysletamissiongiftshop.com/ ) you can order their unique gifts and get them anywhere in the US. I have so many more things to say about Ysleta Mission but this is only a review and not a book, but trying to make a point here we go... Their paintings are beautiful and affordable. They sell the neatest ornaments and masks. They also have holy water available and they sell cute glass bottles to keep your holy water. They sell jewelry, rosaries, crosses, jewelry boxes, paintings, etc. I am so happy to have the opportunity for this Yelp Perk because I visited a place I would have never visited and loved it. If you need a beautiful unique gift this is the place go.

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.

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.
