Running Up That Hill

I’ve often said there’s this category of restaurant in Santa Fe that we all like having around in theory, but that we tend to forget about when the pressure’s on. Luckily, then, Santa Fe is one of those wonderful towns where you’ll run into someone you know, even a little bit, and they’ll tell you they’re waiting tables at such-and-such restaurant, and you should totally stop by for weekend brunch. That’s precisely what happened outside a local coffee shop one afternoon when I heard the words, “Hello, you beautiful man,” shouted from a passing car, assumed they were for some other guy and then wheeled around to see one Arthur Martinson—a super-nice dude I know just a little bit and who, when I run into him, has always suggested I should try whatever restaurant on which he’s been digging. In this case, Martinson told me, he’s been serving at Museum Hill Café (710 Camino Lejo, (505) 984-8900) from pretty famous owner Weldon Fulton. The brunch, Martinson said, was excellent.
