Margaritas: 1 Nachos: 1 - A special podcast in several ways. One, we did the bulk of the recording on a boat on Lake Moovalya in Parker Arizona. Two, we got an excellent tour of the area from our friend Rich Tozer. And three, it was one of the best locations for a podcast we've done. Just beautiful!

Margaritas: 2 Nachos: 2 - After a few false starts we wound up at Fajitas in north Phoenix. Not the best food we've had on this journey. I'm hoping they do fajitas well.

Margaritas: 5 Nachos: 5 - I love this restaurant and Janet only likes it. I love it because I love dishes made with Hatch green chile. But the scores from both of us cinched Arriba as a favorite.

Margaritas: 2 Nachos: 4 - We were on our way to the Guitars & Saxes concert and our first choice of restaurants was too crowded and had too long of a wait. So we went next door to The Office at the Desert Ridge shopping district.

Margaritas: 2 Nachos: 3 - We choose the Yard House based on a recommendation from someone at work who said the nachos were great. They claim to have the “World’s Largest Selection of Draft Beer” and they probably do have the largest selection in Arizona. The Yard House has three locations in the greater Phoenix area.

Margaritas: 3 Nachos: 3 - This trip was to one of our favorite family run mexican restaurants in North Phoenix: Via Delosantos. Like Corbins it is close to our bike trails and close to the house so we go there fairly often. Consistently good food and service.

Margaritas: 5 Nachos: 5 - Our second Nachos Podcast we went to one of our favorite restaurants, Corbins in North Phoenix. Corbins has another location in Glendale but we’ve never been there. They have been featured on the Beth & Bill morning radio show and have always been consistently good. Corbins is close to the canal bike trails we ride when it’s cooler and we look forward to having our after ride meal and a drink there frequently.

Margaritas: 3 Nachos: 5 - For our first Nachos Podcast we choose the Salty Seniorita in north Scottsdale AZ. They have four restaurants in the greater Phoenix area and this one was the closest to where we live. Our friends Troy and Laura from Whit’s work turned us on to the place except it’s confusing because they keep calling it Sister Taco. We have no idea why they call it that.
