| - We spent a wonderful evening at Crudo on Friday night for their "soft" opening. Celebrated a birthday dinner with friends and were seated outside at a roomy table for 8 on the patio. It was a bit cool outside but Dina, our waitress provided a cozy heating lamp that warmed us right up. We started our evening with a bottle of red wine: Dina's recommendation of a Cabernet-Sangiovese blend that was perfect - smooth and tasty - and perfectly paired with our food choices. We shared plates of rich butterfish, seasoned with basil and orange, a tuna/sashimi dish laced with truffle sauce and an incredibly delicious dish, "San Danielle Prosciutto," that is surrounded by homemade pickles and red peppers. For dinner, we tried a sampling of the Yellowtail Stew, Risotto, Rolled Veal, Gnocchi, and Fingerling potatoes. What an incredible culinary feast - each dish was carefully prepared, delicious, and the presentation was fabulous! We will make this a regular stop when we're in Scottsdale. Thank you to Crudo's wonderful chefs, Cullen Campbell and Brandon Crouser for creating such an incredible menu and making our evening so memorable!
