When I was in Albuquerque a few days a go, I asked someone where there was a good place to get some New Mexican food. And yes there is a difference between Mexican food and New Mexican food. The bar tender was nice enough to narrow the selection to about 30 good places. WOW. I was instantly overwhelmed. I just wanted to know one place. Finally a gentlemen sitting next to me suggested one place. Ok good. I did go there the next day and it was very good.
Now the next day something very similar happened. I was looking for a good time, and by a good time I mean a place to get a cup of coffee. I was down in the Nob Hill area of Albuquerque. I would call this area the downtown for University of New Mexico. I asked someone where a good place to get a cup of coffee, they said there were about 10 on this side of the road and another dozen or so on the other side for the next 15 blocks. Wow, not again. I found a place a few blocks down that looked good, and it was.
Now as an American consumer shouldn't I like that I have this many choices? I guess I like small towns where there aren't many choices.
