Deming is a small town in the southwestern region of New Mexico, USA. It has attained a quirky sort of fame as the site of the Great American Duck Race, one of those little bits of Americana sometimes encountered in very small towns. Interesting country is nearby for the geologist and hiker.

Open M-Sa 9AM-4PM; closed major holidays. Native American artifacts and items of local color.
In late August, this amazingly quirky event defies description; the photo of the "2006 Duck Queen" on the website (above) is worth a thousand words (even if most of them are "quack") and nearly as many laughs.
Tolerable Mexican, nothing special but quite edible.
Basic Italian-American.
Not the easiest place to find but you'll be glad when you found it. One of the best steaks for miles. The atmosphere is well worth the trip. They even have a place for you to tie up your horse.
Is visible from the highway on the frontage road going into town on I-10 eastbound.
Is a larger operation than Luna Rossa. There are signs in town directing you to the vineyard. Warning: their website blasts annoying music.
A good place for when you're feeling retro.
