I was driving down Scottsdale Road a few months back and this restaurant caught my eye. It just opened recently and I wanted to try something new.
I was hoping they were serving brunch since it was the weekend, unfortunately, they only serve lunch & dinner. Since I was already there, I figured I might as well dine.
My server recommended this herb-marinated chicken breast and instead of the fingerling potatoes, I opted for the sweet potato croquettes.
The food is as good as this picture. According to their website, they buy from local farms and prepare everything in-house from scratch. My food was prepared wonderfully, I can't wait to try their other dishes.
Chicken Paillard - Reasonably Priced
I have been to St. Francis a few times, it's one of my favorite spots in Downtown Phoenix. I've been there for brunch and dinner. It seems like when I browse through the menu, the servers are doing a food parade in front of me as I admire each dish that crosses my path.
At one of my St. Francis visits, my girlfriend ordered this dish and I wasn't really in the mood for steak and eggs for breakfast and she told me that it was really good that I should try it sometime. Well, sometime came months later and I figured I should give this dish a try.
Simple ingredients.. eggs.. red wine braised beef, seasonal vegetables, tomatoes, gruyere with toast...
This dish is plenty for two people. I couldn't put my fork down. The shameful part was my waiter found me scraping the side of this dish because I didn't want to miss a morsel of it. :-)
