Corn Maiden

Foods on Fire

The Corn Maiden is an honored symbol of the Santa Ana Pueblo. She represents the special relationship between the farmer and the plant. Our Fire is the blending of local flavors with nouvelle cuisine.
Skewered, spit fired meat; fowl and fish accompanied by fresh, seasonal vegetables are the signatures of the Corn Maiden.
Beans and Maize relishes further enhance the flavors of our kitchen. Tapas style plates offer smaller portions for sharing and interesting selections for grazing at the bar.
