You "can" help build homes for Habitat for Humanity
ARTESIA - Habitat for Humanity of Artesia has been collecting aluminum cans as a fundraiser for
several years.
If you are a business and would like to participate, we have Aluminum Cans for Habitat
receptacles that we can get to you.
If you are an individual and want to participate, just sack the cans.
Either way, all you have to do is take the cans to Steel Depot on 1st and Richey when your
receptacle/sack is full. They will weigh them and give you a receipt.
Take the receipt in the office and tell them it's for Habitat; they will put the receipt and money in
an envelope for Habitat to pick up (usually once a month). We're collecting between $25-$50 a
month with the businesses and individuals already participating!
E-mail kphipps@pvtnetworks.net or habitat@pvtn.net if you're a business wanting an aluminum
can receptacle. We will get one to you ASAP.

| Hello from Hungry Hannah Hungry Hannah is a subjective review of restaurants in and around the Artesia area. The opinions are solely those of Hungry Hannah and not necessarily the opinions of Artesia360.com. Comments, questions and suggestions may be submitted to Hungry_Hannah@artesia360.com. I've been able to review two restaurants here in Artesia in the past month and also one from the Lubbock area. Kwan Den: We went on a Monday night. They have a really good Cashew Chicken dish on the buffet. Small but excellent Salad bar which includes boiled shrimp and fruit. Wonderful ice cream bar which is serve yourself with toppings. There is American food such as fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, homemade rolls, green chile soup/stew, tacquitos, and various veggies. The Chinese buffet is pretty good but lacking in the egg roll department. They didn't appear fresh so I passed them by. They offer sweet/sour pork which surprised me as most Chinese restaurants don't in this area. You can get the green pepper and pineapple off the salad bar to go with your pork and is delish! Best iced tea in my opinion in Artesia. Price of buffet and drink is about 12.00 a person. Owner will also do fried chicken to go if you call ahead. It is much better and fresher than the Colonel. I give this place 4 stars out of 5. Nina's is the next one I would like to comment about. Absolutely the best hamburgers in Artesia and I've tried them all. Forget the sign at Wings...very misleading. Nina's is always full at lunch and hard to get a table but worth the wait. Very good Mexican food as far as New Mexican style goes (sorry but I'm from Texas and was raised on Tex-Mex) but you can get enchiladas with queso sauce which was very good along with rice and beans....yum. Very good guacamole salad and they make their own chips there. Salsa comes in hot in mild and mild does have a bite. They offer Mexican sodas and IBC root beer in a bottle. Great child's menu and they have deep fried chocolate cheesecake which I haven't tried yet. I usually go there for hamburgers and hubby loves their chile rellenos. Price is $15-20 for 2 depending on your selection. I give this place 4.5 out of 5 stars. Garcia's Mexican Restaurant 5604 Slide Rd, #100, Lubbock, TX Phone 806.792.0097 We had to go to Lubbock on business and had heard about the Tex-Mex food there. If you are in to TexMex, this is the place to go. I had beef and cheese enchiladas with rice and beans and was not disappointed. Chile gravy was rich with garlic, onion and beef... true Tex-Mex. Was not blood red as I've seen here in New Mexico and it was seasoned well... not just hot. Price was actually cheaper than the leading Mexican restaurant here in Artesia. Service was excellent, great iced tea, but alas no room for dessert. They have mariachis playing on Friday nights so would make a great date. It is loud and the acoustics are terrible as they have a tin ceiling, but well worth the trip for the great food. I give it 4.9 stars. This is all for now! I'll be back with reviews from Artesia and towns within driving distance in August Stay hungry, my friends! Hungry Hannah |
