El Farol writes ... |
On July 18, 1985, I bought El Farol, the oldest restaurant and bar in Santa Fe, New Mexico. El Farol previously existed under different names, but in 1968 Bob Young took it over from the Vigil, Serna and Tapia families, and named it El Farol.
The Vigil family always had some commercial enterprise in what is now the bar at El Farol, and as with so many family businesses, the family lived in the adjacent rooms. El Farol had always been a place where the neighborhood gathered daily to share news about what was going on in the community; Canyon Road was a bustling small business area with grocery stores and even a gas station.
I grew up in similar circumstances in northern New Mexico, where my dad owned a thriving general store in Hernandez. Our home was also adjacent to my dad's store. I believe that I learned as much in my youth working in that store as I did in my formal education........ |
