"Warner Rd., Tempe, 480-629-4270, cottonandcopperaz.com It’s Arizona through and through – not surprising given the reference to two of our state’s historic “Five C’s.” The Tempe gastropub marries locally sourced meats and produce from chef Tamara Stanger (you must try her legendary tepary bean spread and rotating carpaccio plate) with owner Sean Traynor’s delightful craft cocktails (each named after iconic Valley bars)."

"Cotton & Copper is only just getting rolling, but it feels like Tamara Stanger has just been set loose. Having parted ways with Helio Basin Brewing Co., Stanger teamed up with Sean Traynor to open a neighborhood restaurant/watering hole in suddenly red-hot south Tempe. The joint is no-frills, casual and a little raucous with a young drinking crowd."

"On top of boxing some recent Cotton & Copper menu staples, chef Tamara Stanger is cooking an intensive large-format meal that changes nightly. Lately, that has meant duck paprikash, Sonoran-style enchiladas, and Korean fried chicken spatzle. Grab one of Sean Traynor’s cocktails to wash down Stanger’s ethereal pies."

"The whirring sound of blenders fills the air at mother-daughter-owned Pomegranate Café, as fruits and veggies get pulverized into superfood smoothies like the “Green Monkey” (with spirulina and Sunwarrior protein powder).

That is followed by a slew of starters (standard vegan appetizers like Buffalo cauliflower, spinach artichoke dip with bread and chips, and a hummus plate), plus salads, sandwiches, and plant-based burgers."

"The mother-daughter duo behind this neighborhood café has been serving up dynamic combinations of scratch-made components since 2010. Yes, the syrups, POMilk, wholesome breads, fresh juices and decadent baked goods are all hand-crafted. Additionally, everything on the menu is vegan unless there are eggs included."
