they might be freshly picked by chef Katharine Kagel, whose big passion this summer is her

Moor Flavor
I’m sitting on the patio of the new El Meze restaurant in a historic hacienda under Taos Mountain.
It’s sunset, the atmosphere is as mellow as my glass of Rioja. Waiters hush past carrying bowls
of fried green olives stuffed with Spanish blue cheese, and steaming sopa verde piled high with
mussels. Then chef Frederick Muller swings out of the kitchen, looking Matador sharp in his
black chef coat, and shares a few words with each table. All I can say is: Welcome back Fred. It
was worth waiting seven years for this.
Feature on Chef Frederick Muller, formerly of Taos' legendary Fred's Place, and the Moorish
influence on New Mexico's cuisine. Aug 08. Click
