Pies of Chihuahua

On our recent journey to Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, we were looking for a place to sit and eat after touring around for the day, and visiting the awesome 'La Rodadora' Interactive Museum, we were so happy to walk into a diner style restaurant called "Cafe La Nueva Central", established in 1958 - in the historic district, for some tasty comfort food.  An enormous menu caters to an array of tastes, including 50's style diner food, mexican plates, and even some classic chinese favorites.

They still had that 1950's feel, and bullet-proof cashier window.  Sitting next to an old jukebox that played the Mexican oldies, the pie cases were full of delicious pies and puddings.

We chose a booth next to the pie cases, and as we ordered lunch, it became clear that most of the customers were to ultimately take home a coconut, apple, chocolate, or banana cream pie!
This was THE place for pie in downtown historic Juarez.  We sampled their enchiladas, club sandwiches, fries, and strawberry milkshake, and even their arrachera beef flank steak and salad...and everything was incredible.  The banana cream pie was exceptionally good so we took some extra to go!

Arriba Juarez!!!
