These irresistible smoke signals beckon hungry masses to roadside stands where flame-licked chile tumbles in steel-meshed drums.

The salient aromas of pi\u00f1on burn in kiva fireplaces, perfuming a night air swathed in a canopy of stars. Glowing rows of farolitos perched on adobe-hued rooftops and sidewalks light the way for the Christ child. Glissading down precipitous mountain slopes during the day gives way to sedentary evenings in the company of friends and family. This is when the hours spent peeling freshly-roasted chile pays off. Our bounty showcases soul-warming green chile stew and enchiladas with enough heat to temper the cold air.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44555\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44555\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-44555 size-full lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/436;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"436\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02-300x182.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?size=128x78&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?size=384x233&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?size=512x310&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime02.jpg?size=640x388&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44555\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salsa and Chips<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Spring in New Mexico is indisputably chile time. Spring is the season of reawakening and new beginnings&#8211;the blooming of fresh buds, animals leaving their dens after a long winter&#8217;s nap, farmers and gardeners planting seeds and tending to them lovingly. For generations, family farmers have risen with the sun then toiled past sunset, lovingly tending to fertile acreage which will yield the sacrosanct red and green chile so very beloved throughout the Land of Enchantment. Grown across the state for at least four centuries, chile is the one ingredient which distinguishes New Mexican cuisine from that of any other state across the fruited plain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Summer in New Mexico is indisputably chile time. Abundant sunshine, intense heat and fecund fields irrigated by the Rio Grande and its tributaries are nature&#8217;s blessings; assertive monsoon seasons, pests and blights its banes. The distinctive pungency, sweetness, flavor, and piquancy of chile are fashioned in summer. Across the state, the freezers which once held large caches of green chile apportioned in baggies, have seen their chile stashes depleting rapidly. Autumn can&#8217;t return soon enough so we can replenish our chile supply. It&#8217;s an yearly cycle, a ritual we eagerly repeat because in New Mexico, every season is chile time.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44556\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44556\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-44556 size-full lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/391;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"391\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03-300x163.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?size=128x70&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?size=384x209&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?size=512x278&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ChileTime03.jpg?size=640x348&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44556\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carne Adovada Enchiladas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">My friend Steve from my days at Kirtland Air Force Base never invited me for lunch though we dined together frequently. He&#8217;d come into my office and in his best Ben Grimm impression would growl &#8220;It&#8217;s chile time!&#8221; For a Maryland transplant, he sure loved chile&#8211;the hotter, the better. He would have loved the Chile Time Restaurant, not only because his &#8220;it&#8217;s chile time&#8221; declaration also answered the question &#8220;where should we go for chile,&#8221; but because the kitchen staff knows what it&#8217;s doing with red and green chile. The kitchen staff, it turns out, is the one-man whirling dervish named Mick whose other restaurant, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmgastronome.com\/?p=335\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Mick&#8217;s Chile Fix<\/strong><\/a> is a long-time Duke City favorite.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Located in the Scottsdale Village Shopping Center in the space which previously housed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmgastronome.com\/?p=39211\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Karibu Cafe<\/strong><\/a>, the Chile Time Restaurant opened its doors in September, 2017. My inaugural visit two months later evoked a feeling of <span class=\"st\" data-hveid=\"50\" data-ved=\"0ahUKEwi-hdyb1trXAhUF0IMKHRx2CU0Q4EUIMjAB\">d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu<\/span> upon espying Dave Sweis, a long-time server at Mick&#8217;s. I couldn&#8217;t place where I&#8217;d see him before until Mick peeked out from the kitchen to survey the Black Friday breakfast crowd. There&#8217;s comfort in knowing what to expect. What you can expect from Chile Time is hearty portions of New Mexican favorites, breakfast served any time of day and behemoth burgers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">You can also expect the salsa to be the most piquant item on the menu. The <em><strong>salsa and chips<\/strong><\/em> are right-priced. They&#8217;re complimentary, but so good you wouldn&#8217;t mind paying for them. Piquancy isn&#8217;t the salsa&#8217;s sole redeeming quality. It&#8217;s fresh, lively and delicious&#8211;the type of salsa you&#8217;ll need replenished at least once. The chips are crisp, low in salt and probably better for dipping than scooping (my preference). If, like me, you like heat with heat, enjoy a cup of coffee (or six) with the salsa. Hot coffee has the unique ability to enhance the piquancy of chile. Dave will refill your cup faithfully. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">The trite phrase &#8220;have it your way&#8221; has long been associated with Burger King, but at Chile Time, &#8220;have it your way&#8221; applies to enchiladas, too. <em><strong>Enchiladas<\/strong><\/em> are made with yellow corn tortillas and your choice of seasoned ground beef, chicken or carne adovada and they&#8217;re made flat or rolled. That endearing fact means they&#8217;re made to order, not prepared en masse and waiting to be apportioned from a large casserole dish. Then there are the egg choices: one or two, over easy, over medium or over hard. The carne adovada is mild and mellow, as smooth and tender as any in Albuquerque. Tender tendrils of red chile marinated pork are smothered in melted shredded chile and layered in between corn tortillas. The enchiladas are served with refried beans and Spanish rice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Because any time, every time and all the time are chile time, the Chile Time Restaurant promises to please discerning palates needing their chile fix.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>Chile Time Restaurant<\/strong><br \/>\n<span class=\"_Xbe\">3107 Eubank Blvd, N.E., Suite 12<\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Albuquerque, New Mexico<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>LATEST VISIT<\/strong>: 24 November 2017<br \/>\n<strong># OF VISITS<\/strong>: 1<br \/>\n<strong>RATING<\/strong>: N\/R<br \/>\n<strong>COST<\/strong>: $$<br \/>\n<strong>BEST BET<\/strong>: Enchiladas, Salsa and Chips<br \/>\n<strong>RESTAURANT REVIEW #1006<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View Menu, Reviews, Photos &amp; Information about Chile Time Restaurant, East Side and other Restaurants in Albuquerque\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zomato.com\/albuquerque-nm\/chile-time-restaurant-east-side\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none; width: 200px; height: 146px; padding: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zomato.com\/logo\/17864754\/biglink\" alt=\"Chile Time Restaurant Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.
