New Mexico Restaurant Produces All It’s Own Eggs

These guys don't "shop". If you're into organic foods, this New Mexico restaurant is perfect for you and those delicious eggs aren't the only reason why.

A restaurant in New Mexico has a unique claim to fame; it's the only one in New Mexico that completely supplies itself with eggs. in fact, it's the ONLY one in the United States of America that can say that.

El Pinto, located at 10500 4th St in Albuquerque, not only serves up fresh eggs ... literally, chicken to table ... they also utilize other natural sources.

El Pinto sprang up in the North Valley of Albuquerque in 1962, but today it raises its own hens — 200 of them, in fact, and the restaurant refers to its on-premise home as the Hen Hotel. This Animal Welfare-approved program was not only the first of its kind, but remains the only one in the entire country. These organically-fed hens produce pasture-raised eggs, and if you're someone who looks out for labels like cage free and free range when it comes to picking up your carton, that may be enough of a motivation to make the trip. - chowhound.com

On top of that, El Pinto uses humanely raised heritage pork for their dishes and they have their own organic greenhouse. If you're a drinker, they also have over 160 types of the healthiest liquor there is, tequila.

Seriously, not only is it good for you, it can even help you lose weight. If you want to try a "tequila diet", forget all the marketing gobbledygook - here's how to pick a good one.
