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.

About me:
While I can follow a recipe and produce good results, I'm hoping to learn more. I finished college a couple of years ago and realized there are MUCH better options than take-out and Hamburger Helper. Now my wife complains that I watch too much FoodTV. :)

Turkish Rissoles

Reviewed on Oct. 9, 2008 by Jtms
I don't know what I did wrong, but it took closer to half an hour than 10 minutes to cook this. After I was done, it was rather plain. It was basically patties of meatloaf, with no "zing" to it.

Zesty Lemon Potatoes

Reviewed on Oct. 9, 2008 by Tinkerfaire
These were really great potatoes! I made them with some lemon herb chicken breasts seasoned with lemon/herb seasoning and lemon juice. I also added the seasoning to the potatoes as well. At first I wasn't so sure about using lemon juice with potatoes but they turned out fantastic and I cant wait to make these agian. I really liked these and so did the rest of my family. what an orginal idea, I wish I would have come up with it! ha ha. Thanks for the fabulous recipe.

Tasty Green Bean Casserole

Reviewed on Oct. 9, 2008 by Tinkerfaire
This is almost exactly how I make my green bean casserole, except I add a few slices of bacon crumbled up and no wine. I did make this though at it was pretty darn good. I still like adding bacon and green pepper though. It is different from the old standby green bean casserole and that is what caught my attention. However I think I will stick to my version. It is not as healthy as this one b/c of the bacon but oh well.
