Phoenix, Arizona

Rising from the dry Salt River Valley to become the fifth largest US city and capital of Arizona, Phoenix lives up to its namesake, the mythical bird revived by fire. Established in the late 1880s as a farming community, today’s Phoenix spans 500 square miles. The city’s food traditions reflect its Mexican and Spanish legacy, Western frontier history, and diverse population. La Hacienda is considered one of the finest Mexican restaurants in town, while the Handlebar J Saloon serves up live country music with steaks. Fine restaurants come with patios for enjoying vivid sunsets, and are often associated with hotels and resorts. Kai, nationally acclaimed for Native American cuisine with global accents, is located at Wild Horse Pass Resort. Flamma Trattoria, a cousin of NYC-based Flamma Osteria, serves Italian fare in a sophisticated setting. Eggs Benedict and blueberry pancakes are available all day at the popular Breakfast Club in Scottsdale, while recent Asian immigrants have introduced Chinese, Thai, and Indonesian menus.

Mom's Best Macaroni Salad

Reviewed on Aug. 25, 2008 by Tinkerfaire
This is a excelent dish, I have made it a few times and brought it to family gatherings. I made only a few alterations which don't change the original layout of the recipe. 1. I used pasta shells instead 2. I added some smalled cube chedder cheese and peas. 3. I cut down on the sugar and vinager, condensed milk is pretty sweet and after letting the mixture sit over night the pasta really absorbes the liquid I didn't want it to sweet. Such a good recipe I probably wont try another one. Maybe some time I will actually use the macaroni instead of small pasta shells!

Basil Shrimp

Reviewed on Aug. 25, 2008 by Tinkerfaire
This was alrite, not one of the best but good. I did not use as much lemon juice and did not marinate that long. Shrimp absorbs liquids easily and doesn't need that long, especially with lemon juice since it is so acidic. It could have used a bit more flavor. The recipe is not totally bad just needs some tweaking to suit the family's taste. Very important though not to marinate to long or your shrimp will turn mushy and chewy, no one wants that

Breaded Center Cut Pork Chops

Reviewed on Aug. 25, 2008 by Tinkerfaire
This is a pretty good pork chop recipe, I did cut down on the breading and eggs, way to much even for 6 chops. I did brown them in the frying pan for about 3 min on each side (like alot of others I was afraid they would not be crispy enough) I followed everything else though exactly. I served with white gravy on top and mash potatoes also some zuccinni for a veggie. I have made this a few times and always good
