    ““I wore high heels and suits to work every day,” says Mary Patino, who left her corporate job to sell enchilada sauce in person in grocery stores and eventually opened Enchiladas Ole with no professional culinary experience. “I don’t think I could wear a pair of heels now. I wear tennis shoes all day. But I’ve become more comfortable and a better person because I’ve learned to appreciate everything that comes with hard work and labor.”

    Mary brought time-tested menu items along to Enchiladas Olé, including her classic Emoladas with curried chicken, draped in a smoky, traditional mole sauce and topped with sesame seeds. But she has added new dishes such as a New Mexico red sauce to her repertoire as well. New Mexican red chilies add both brighter color and a little more heat than most ancho-based sauces.

Mary Perez opened this cheery spot in 2013 after finding success selling sauces and salsas off her food truck. The colorful room is nestled in a small strip of shops, and the enchiladas are terrific. Try the pecan-smoked brisket in verde sauce or the curried chicken enchilada smothered in mole.
