  • Oh Sid, Oh Preston. Oh you guys........ I was so sad to see Palette leave this beautiful spot, once home to the downtown oasis Tara's Garden. I was then equally disturbed to see that the new replacement was named, of all things, Local Breeze. WTF? We live in Phoenix. We don't have breezes. We have dust storms. We have monsoons. Local Breeze? Really? But...it won me over. First. 10% discount for bicyclers. Then, amazing drinks. Then, amazing drink specials. Then, awesome, beautiful outdoor bar. Then, incredible yummy, delicious and not expensive food. And then, my ninety year old grandma come to town. Grandma lived in Key West for twenty five years, before Grandpa died and she got too old for such shenanigans. Now, she shuttles bewteen "the kids". (Ages 68-72.) This March, it was Dad's turn. Grandma arrived at Sky Harbor an hour and a half late, essentially destroying more than half of our downtown options for food. Since I love LB, me and the Significant O decided to go there. When I arrived, I was worried that G'ma might be cold. (All seating is essentially outside seating. Even inside is outside here, a fact I had sort of forgotten. I was freaking out. This is my little old delicate g'ma!) Sid brought over a heater. Hustled the girls to take care of her. Personally greeted her at the door. Walked her to her seat. She soaked it in. Unlike her last ungrateful offspring of visits past, she was FINALLY being treated as the queen she deserved. Food: Awesome. Drinks: Awesome. Menu: Awesome. G'ma was STARVING and dove in to the food like no one's business. Mom and Dad (also starving, since waiting on G'ma for an extra hour and a half) LOVED IT. I was so stressed out about finding the perfect place to bring little old grandma, and this was it. How convenient that it's also a killer place to eat a hangover breakfast feast, perfect spot for a date, a business lunch, a quick bite OR leisurely drawn out mid-week brunch, or late night nibble? (Kitchen, i think, closes at ten). We are SO LUCKY to have this place in downtown Phoenix. For all the specialty stops that have spring up in the last couple of years (Which I also love) this is such a great, local, easy place. It's a lot like Carly's, the default place that I go when I just want something awesome, familiar, nearby and solid. Best compliment from Grandma: "Something about that place reminds me of Key West in the seventies." (I think it might be Sid, but who knows?)
