Tim's Place

Who isn't in the mood for a fun, unique restaurant where hugs are on the menu? In Albuquerque, New Mexico, there is a restaurant called Tim's Place that is known as "the world's friendliest restaurant" and this slogan is spot-on. This fantastic find is owned and operated by Tim, a very successful and wildly happy young man with Down's syndrome. The story of Tim's place is not only beautiful, but also inspirational. Tim is so driven that, after his  success in Special Olympics, his goal was to be one of the world's first men with Down's Syndrome to own his own restaurant.

Tim's Place Albuquerque: Service With A Smile!  When you walk in, the first thing you find is that the restaurant offers "breakfast, lunch, and hugs" and there is even a hug counter on the wall. The food items relate directly to Tim's life and accomplishments. Not only is Tim a very accomplished athelete, the food  he serves is great! We were lucky enough to be welcomed at the door by Tim himself and we absolutely made sure and got our free hug! I would really recommend the French Toast Bread Pudding as it is DELICIOUS.

How inspiring is this story & young man!!! Not only does Tim's Place sound like it has good food, (the French Toast Bread Pudding - YUM) but you get some "sugar" for dessert - a HUG!! What the world needs now is love - sweet - love!!!
