I went out to hear my friend Rick Strole playing tonight at
a place that just opened on the north west corner of Pinnacle Peak and Pima in
north Scottsdale. I try to go see
people that I know when they have a gig, to support Acoustic Music here in the
valley and Rick is a real treat.
He has the rare ability to play a very complex rhythm while singing a
totally different melody line. His
timing is fantastic and he has a great feel for the music. He focuses on the early 60’s and tosses
in a few hits from the 70’s. The
Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Buffalo Springfield, Neil young and the lovin
Spoonful to name a few are covered with dedication and taste.
As I sat listening to Rick I noticed
these beautiful plates coming by.
So I asked for a menu. This
is, perfectly executed, light and fresh Café dining, with a French twist.
The salads are just the right size and
the baked goods and pasta are made fresh daily. I had eaten before going out, but called my wife Chef Kathy
and told her we need to drop by for breakfast in the next couple of days.
Husband and wife team, Kathy and Adam Wenda, are the
proprietors and they have really done their homework. As they call it, “Feel good food,” is what you get and in a
beautiful setting. They are open
for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Trust me you don’t want to miss this new little gem at 8700 e Pinnacle
Peak Rd. Ste 107 in north Scottsdale.
