Whether you’re exploring the downtown Plaza area, are out and about, or heading out of town on a day trip, you’ll find some wonderful restaurants that feature a variety of entrées under $10.

This time, let’s try one of my favorite tricks, developed during my starving artist years in New York City: I call it “Drinks and Apps.” Many of Santa Fe’s fine restaurants have separate bar menus that offer lovely selections at a fraction of the prices in the main dining room.
