| - We stayed at the Sheraton for three nights right across the street from the Arizona center, while attending a business conference.
We arrived in Phoenix after a 4 hour drive from the Grand Canyon, and fighting through rush hour traffic to get to our hotel, and were hungry and wanted something fast and filling to eat. Walked across the street, and entered the mall, and there was the Corner Bakery Cafe.
The place looked clean, was relatively quiet, and not too busy, so in we went. I ordered the $8 linguine with meatballs special, while my wife ordered the $8.50 Asian wonton salad.
The linguine was actually thick egg noodles, with marinara sauce, and two huge meatballs. The meatballs were the size of billiard balls, if not tennis balls. I kid you not -these were the biggest meatballs I have ever seen!. Unfortunately I was so hungry I ate a huge portion of the dish before I could take a picture of it.
The wonton salad came in a huge bowl, and could have fed four people. It had crispy wontons in a soy dressing, with good portions of chicken and other vegetables mixed in with the salad.
Total for the meal was $16.48 before tip and tax.
We came back for two breakfasts. I had the $7 Anaheim scrambler for one meal, which was scrambled eggs with bacon, tomatoes, onion, cheese, and avocado.
The next day I had the $7 all American scrambler of scrambled eggs with sausage, toast, and potatoes.
My wife had the $4.30 oatmeal for one meal, and the $5.78 Anaheim Panini, with eggs, bacon, green onions, avocado, and cheese on a sourdough, with a side of fruit medley.
We will be back to the Corner Bakery Cafe when we come back to Phoenix.
