Parking lot eats and social distancing in south Scottsdale

A week into the Covid-19 pandemic and restaurants only serving takeout I’ve been making my way to my neighborhood “Go to” restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are plenty of great restaurants in south Scottsdale and I’ve been to my share but rarely do I dine in the parking lot. With takeout only available I rarely take the food more than a few feet from where I pick it up from. With so many great lists of restaurants serving takeout I wanted to put a list together of my neighborhood parking lot eats that I’ve been supporting before we started social distancing. parking lot eats

I haven’t found the need to travel far from home during this time so most are in 85257/857251 that I can walk or bike to but occasionally I make my way into Phoenix or Tempe.

Arizona Restaurant Association responds with Arizona Takeout Week

In a response to closing all restaurants ordered by Governor Ducey to combat the spread of the coronavirus, the Arizona Restaurant Association announces the start of an ongoing Arizona Takeout Week. Effective today restaurants can only serve food for takeout and delivery along with beer & wine. Some restaurants had already closed their dining rooms to focus on takeout and delivery.

The ARA thought up the idea as they organize the popular bi-annual Arizona Restaurant Week.

“We appreciate and thank Governor Ducey for his efforts in working with the restaurant industry to mitigate the spread of the Coronavirus,” says Arizona Restaurant Association President and CEO Steve Chucri. “The Arizona restaurant family appreciates his work and that of all elected leaders in our state during this unparalleled time in our history.”

There are more than 200,000 jobs in the restaurant industry in Arizona and with locals ordering take out it’s the only way these restaurants can stay in business.

“At the end of the day, we are the industry of ‘happy’ — that is what the hospitality industry represents. We hope to bring a bit of happiness to Arizonans during this extremely difficult time through Arizona Takeout Week while keeping our employees and restaurants afloat,” Chucri says.

I’ve have 2 posts about restaurants around Arizona who are serving food and wine for takeout. Below are additional restaurants serving takeout meals around Arizona. For more information visit the Arizona Restaurant Association website and for any restaurants looking to participate in Arizona Takeout Week email them at takeout@azrestaurant.org

New Allocation coffee line from Press Coffee offers the best of the best

They say the cream rises to the top but you may not want to put cream in a new line of coffees from Press Coffee. The local specialty roaster will start offering limited quantities of its new Allocation line of coffee beans in March. As a specialty roaster, Press only offers coffee and beans that score 80 of 100 points by the Specialty Coffee Association of America. Their new Allocation line will offer the best of those beans that score 90 points or above.

To be considered Specialty coffee, beans must be grown in higher elevation regions along with being evaluated. Soil, growing conditions and harvesting are considered when evaluating the beans that must have minimal defects, taste clean and be consistent. The coffee is scored on aroma, flavor aftertaste, acidity, body, balance and other criteria.

“We are thrilled to launch this specialty coffee program,” said Will Andrews, lead roaster of Press Coffee. “Tasting and experiencing these unique coffees is very rare. We want to give this opportunity to our staff and customers as it is our passion to enjoy and immerse ourselves in the best coffee in the world.”

The first quarterly allocation is set for March 15th with a limited quantity from a micro-mill in central Costa Rica. Online subscribers will have first shot at the beans that will be $26 for a six ounce bag. A small amount of the allocation will be sent to each location for cups of pour over coffee for customers and the remainder, if any will be sold on Press’s website. To make sure you get the best of the world’s coffee head make sure you check their website for availability.
