El Panzon y Frida
Have you ever thought to yourself, hey, if I live in Phoenix and Phoenix is so close to Mexico, why can’t I get authentic Mexican food on every street corner? You’re not alone. It’s an often asked question amongst the Bitches who frequent Barrio Urbano to get their fix, but now, we welcome with open…
Modern Round {Shoot Eat Sip}
It’s not often we get to travel to Peoria outside of spring training season, but Modern Round invited us to a media event we couldn’t say no to. A bar with virtual gun ranges? We’d heard whispers from our friends who live in the wild west valley. “You can shoot stuff there while you drink.”…

Or thrilled….

Psst. We have a little secret to share: We went to the Honor Amongst Thieves opening last night. And we want to tell you about it so you can go, too. It smelled new, but the concept is old: Good drinks; small, dark bar you get to feel cool for knowing about. Tale as old…
Wine Picnic Saturdays at Okra {NOW CLOSED}
It’s hot. Super hot. So, when you think of summer in Arizona, your mind doesn’t go straight to picnic. But it should, now that Okra has introduced three-course wine picnic Saturday lunches. All those words roll right off the tongue until you’re about three glasses of wine deep. But, by then, you don’t even care…
