Saffron Jak is all about the love and respect. Love of family and respect for food traditions, love of flavor, love of experimentation and definitely love and respect for the customer. So many businesses forget that one. Not here.
The menu is small and I like that. Big menus scare me. I never feel like a place can do everything right when the menu is too ambitious. Each dish here is special. From the lightly charred cherry tomatoes that pop in your mouth to the creamy salty feta whip that goes with everything on the menu. And there is something for everyone in the group. Pizza, chicken, beef, and veggies.
Now they don't have a secret menu but they do have a "in the know" menu. So now I'm telling you and you too are in the know. Ask them what they are pickiling or jamming that week and they will be sure to have some tasty treat for you. On the day we were there we got to try some killer pickles and grape dust yes grape dust. The pickles were my idea of perfection. Crunchy and alive with dill. Not too sour yet not sweet. And the grape dust well lets just say if Phoenix Haboobs were made of this dust we would welcome them. These guys took the grape skins leftover from making jam and turned them into dust. They have a waste not want not philosophy that in this day of horrific food waste soothes my soul.
Jaymes you made my day! I had come all the way from Prescott to see what this Stonebread Cafe was all about. I came for the food and left with so much more. I left with the love of two brothers and their staff dishing it out in style. So do yourself a favor and go get yourself some love on a stonebread. Oh and they cater too. Just ask them for ideas they are bursting with them
