Locals know to enter through the back door, entering through the kitchen! The red-flocked wallpaper sets the stage for this 1940's chophouse - well-known for their stiff martinis - so retro. Their motto - "Good friends, great steaks and the best booze are the necessities of life."

It is delicious & very affordable! Kind of a "buid-your-own" enchilada with excellent ingredients - very fresh.

Coffee shop by day, wine bar by night. And even better it is run by Catholic Charities and proceeds go to nonprofit services in the community. Food, booze & good deeds - can't get better than that!

Who doesn't want to go hang with the butterlies in the largest butterfly pavilion in America? Thought it would be kind of cheesy (not that I have anything against cheese - obviously, since I went anyway) but it was awesome. www.butterflywonderland.com

Parks & Nature

When in the land of "the cactus" you should go see all the cactus. Who knew there was such a wide variety of exotic looking plants - some look other-wordly!

Not a easy hike, actually pretty challenging, but the view from the top is worth it - NOT FOR LATE SPRING/SUMMER - TOO HOT! Early morning start is best. Bring hiking shoes, sunblock & at least a liter of water! Save some steps by taking the free Olley the Trolley from Scottsdale to the Echo Park trailhead.
