How is it possible to feel like you're actually eating at a farm house when you're really in the middle of Phoenix?! I have no idea, but Arcadia Farms does it. The restaurant is completely adorable with a couple of different buildings, the main one having segmented rooms just like a house. The chairs and table are all mismatched in a charming way and I almost expect to see my grandmother come from around a corner wearing an apron and a light dusting of flour.
Gabi and I had lunch here on my last day in town and we requested a table in the back room in hopes that it would be a tad bit less noisy. And even though we were there for a meeting and pulled out our laptops to work for a bit our server never batted an eye and she took excellent care of us.
I ordered the chicken and warm veggies salad and added avocado, a trick that Gabi shared with me. It was pretty much a chop salad, which I actually really like. What is it about places that give you gargantuan pieces of lettuce in a salad? I mean I know it may seem like I have a big mouth, but there's no way I'm fitting that in gracefully. I also ordered the iced tea, which I highly, highly recommend. It tasted like it's brewed with fruit and it's oh-so-delicious!
