DescriptionThe exterior of La Cocina restaurant in Old Town Albuquerque, New Mexico, at night. Upright posts elevate the portal. Hanging lights illuminate the stucco exterior. At the right is the restaurant entrance. There are decorations at the sides and above the door. Above the door is a painted sign that says, “La Cocina (THE KITCHEN) DINING.” Immediately over the door is a sign that says ENTRANCE. At the left-most part of the photo is a sign painted on the wall: “Irene Barnett/Interiors”. Then two words are obscured, and a telephone number is only partly visible. To the right of the sign is a window with a Mexican serape in it; to the right of the window is a door, possibly the door to Irene Barnett’s office.
