The Hummingbird Tearoom in Ruidoso
It has been a long time since our last post. Work obligations have prevented us from pursuing our pie interests!
Today we visited the Hummingbird Tearoom in Ruidoso, New Mexico and found them to be very blog worthy!
This was our waitress, Kimmie Cherry, who brought us a very nice cherry cobbler and a buttermilk pie that had a very unique blending of lemon and nutmeg flavors. It was very creamy and flavorful, sort of like a southern style Crème brûlée,. Don't let the word "buttermilk" prevent you from trying this!
Kimmie told us that the Tearoom, located on 2306 Sudderth Drive, has been in business for 22 years. Debbie and Gary, the current owners, have owned the establishment for eight years. Even if you aren't hungry, it is worth paying them a visit to view Gary's beautiful nature paintings hanging on the walls. He told us his paintings of deer, bear and other wildlife are based upon animals he has seen on their Ruidoso property.
Because of Gary's gluten allergies, they realized that many people would appreciate having a gluten free menu available. Click here to view their gluten free menu and website.
For those with no allergies, the most popular dessert is their french bread pudding. Gary told us that they have had people fly into town, drive to the restaurant for the bread pudding and then fly back out.
