| - Finally a restaurant from restaurant week that warrants 5 stars. If you are on the fence about trying out Posh, I hope this review will convince you to try it. Not only was the food 5 star, so were the wine pairings and service. If at all possible, sit at the chef's counter. It is free theatre and you can see the chef and his staff expertly create delicious dishes one after another. I opted for the 4 course dinner with wine pairings. They began with an amuse bouche of coconut milk ricotta over pesto. I make my own cow's milk ricotta at home and must say that I am now going to experiment with making coconut milk ricotta. I can only imagine how delicious a coconut ricotta pie or cannoli would be...My first course was a daikon and endive salad with beets, bread crumbs, cucumber and buttermilk style dressing. It was light, perfectly seasoned and the textural addition of the breadcrumbs made it inviting rather than boring. My second course consisted of bay scallops, roasted patty squash and toasted red rice. The seasoning of the dish was spot on, though I would always prefer sea to bay scallops, if for no other reason than the textural difference. That being said, I cleaned the plate. My 3rd dish was goat with spinach and a tomato puree. If you have never tried goat, this is the dish to have as a first timer. It would remind you somewhat of carnitas with a bit more flavor. I almost licked the plate, and inwardly cursed Posh for not having bread service, which would have allowed me to sop up all the goodness in a more tasteful fashion. For my last course I enjoyed a delicious cheese plate. The triple creme with the homemade buttered toast, pistachio bits and honey literally made me swoon...well that and the perfectly paired dessert wine. It was at this point in the meal that I realized that the pleasure that this food produces rivals that of good sex. To top it off, I tasted a lemon "lollipop" if you will, from the anti griddle. Perfection! Truth be told I could have polished off about 10 more. They also send you home with a little goodie bag of cookies, which I have yet to try. Overall, this is by far the best meal I have had in AZ and perhaps America. I would gladly wash dishes for a couple of hours in order to enjoy this food on a regular basis. Neither the staff, line cooks, chef or waiters were pretentious and all seemed to really care about food and the quality of their guests' experience. I will certainly be back and know that this will be THE place I bring out of town guests. I have reservations for 3 additional restaurants for restaurant week and it is going to take all of my will power not to cancel them in order to come back to Posh instead.
