scottsdale brunch: Where to Eat in Scottsdale - The Craftsman Cocktails and Kitchen - 02/26/21 11:17 AM
When I heard that Chef Chris Nicosia had opened a new restaurant, we were excited. We got to know Chris originally at Desert Mountain and then followed him to Sassi where he was the Executive Chef until it sadly closed. 
His new venture is The Craftsman Kitchen & Cocktails and it is located Grayhawk at the corner of Hayden and Thompson Peak. It has a lovely patio with a firepit and the front of the restaurant has retractable doors that gives it an airy feel. 
While the menu is on the casual side, the food itself is elevated and delicious. There are many … (0 comments)

We recently popped into NCounter for our first visit and have now added it to our places we plan to dine at often.  NCounter's tagline is "Brunch All Day" and on that front, it does not disappoint!
The menu is quite extensive so it took us a couple of minutes to figure out what to order. You can go as healthy or as decadent as you want. Then you simply place your order at the counter and are given a marker to bring to your table.
We chose three very different items to try.
On the decadent … (0 comments)

A few weeks back, we were out and deciding where to eat. It had been a while since we had been to LON's at The Hermosa Inn and as luck would have it, they had space available for us for their Sunday Brunch.

It was a perfect sunny morning and they were able to accommodate us on the patio in a nice shaded area. We not only enjoyed the design of the building from our table, but the … (0 comments)
