Rain Dance Edition
This week Hanabi visits the deserts of Phoenix. If you want Polish eats in a modern setting in the middle of the Phoenix arts district then check out Milk Bar.
Tired of delicious Mexican food and now Polish food, then head over to Cornish Pasty in Tempe Az. for that deep down (I’m making a mining un. You know, Cornwall and it’s mines? Never mind) British flavor.
Okay, I may have said this before, but breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day. But, Matt’s Big Breakfast in Phoenix is ridiculously good! If you like chorizo and eggs, this place is doing it right. Oh, and yes, you can order a single pancake too. It’s amazing!
Hanabi stayed in Seattle, but he didn’t waste any time looking for fried chicken and biscuits at The 5 Point Cafe.
He also let his night-life flag fly a little at Nitelite Lounge. Insane Dane discusses the dark side of almonds on Dish + Drink. He also give props to another Dish + Drink contributor for his piece on Thailand.
Okay, you should probably check out the bands Aurora,
Hey Mother Death
and Hudson Mohawke
