Fusion cuisine is the inventive combination of diverse, sometimes disparate culinary traditions, techniques and ingredients to form an entirely new genre. In large metropolitan areas, particularly throughout California, the fusion of different cuisines became commonplace. Restaurants featuring the melding of French and Chinese cuisine were especially popular.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Still other restaurants had their own ideas as to what constituted fusion cuisine. Instead of intermixing ingredients, they featured menus showcasing the cuisine of several genres. One such restaurant is Clancy\u2019s Pub in Farmington, New Mexico. Though its name practically screams \u201cIrish pub,\u201d Clancy\u2019s Pub is so much more. Founded in 1978, Clancy\u2019s offers one of the most diverse and comprehensive menus you\u2019ll find anywhere in New Mexico. It\u2019s East meets West, surf meets turf, vegetarian meets meat lover, sweet meets savory, and so much more.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42466\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42466\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-42428 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/481;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" width=\"720\" height=\"481\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?size=128x86&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?size=256x171&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 256w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?size=384x257&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?size=512x342&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy07.gif?size=640x428&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42466\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of Clancy&#8217;s dining rooms<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Now, if you\u2019re wondering if Clancy\u2019s Pub is just another one of those restaurants which endeavors to \u201cbe all things to all people\u201d and falls woefully short of its aspirations, you\u2019re in for a surprise. Clancy\u2019s menu is replete with the highest quality foods\u2014hundreds of exciting dishes prepared in a wide array of delightful styles: American (traditional), barbecue, burgers, Irish, Japanese, New Mexican, sandwiches, seafood, steak, sushi and vegetarian. How\u2019s that for fusion! With such a comprehensive menu, there\u2019s bound to be something for everyone. If, however, you\u2019re craving something that\u2019s not on the menu and Clancy\u2019s has the ingredients, they\u2019ll prepare it for you. How\u2019s that for customer orientation?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">As you approach Clancy\u2019s, you\u2019ll quickly notice that it doesn\u2019t subscribe to the stereotypical template of an Irish pub in America. Even with its emerald green trim and awning, its adobe-hued stucco exterior bespeaks New Mexico far more than Dublin. Step inside and you\u2019ll run into an illuminated shamrock or two, but not too many more of the typical trappings of a pub in Killarney, Cork or Limerick. Instead, you\u2019ll find an ambiance as eclectic as the menu. Native American paintings and ceramic chiles festoon the walls. There\u2019s something to catch your eye everywhere you turn.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42461\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42461\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-42428 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/482;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" width=\"720\" height=\"482\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?size=128x86&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?size=256x171&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 256w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?size=384x257&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?size=512x343&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Clancy02.gif?size=640x428&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42461\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mac and Cheese Bites<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">That certainly applies to the multi-page menu, which offers so many options you\u2019ll be hard-pressed to make a quick decision.
