Valley of the Sun

Northern Arizona

Southern Arizona

The largest metropolitan area in the Southwestern United States, Greater Phoenix encompasses more than 20 cities and towns, including Scottsdale, Phoenix (which is the capital of the state), Cave Creek, Carefree, Paradise Valley, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, and Glendale. Its nickname is the Valley of the Sun, bestowed in recognition of the average 300 days of sunshine the Valley—so called because the area lies in the Salt River Valley—enjoys each year. Metro Phoenix is known for its high-end spas, golf courses, restaurants, and of course, cacti and scenic views.

Northern Arizona includes cities such as Sedona, Flagstaff, Payson, Pinetop, and Williams. The area features the famous red rocks of Sedona, several mountain ranges—including the San Francisco Peaks—and the largest Ponderosa Pine forest in North America. Of course, it’s also the location of the famous Grand Canyon, as well as Monument Valley, Canyon de Chelly, the Painted Desert, Slide Rock State Park, Antelope Canyon, and Meteor Crater. Due to its elevation, Northern Arizona experiences more seasonal weather than the Valley of the Sun, often including heavy snow.

Skiing is a popular pastime.

There’s a lot of history to explore in Southern Arizona, from ancient ruins to abandoned mines to locales made famous during the Wild West days. Tucson is the region’s largest city, and is today filled with golf courses, spas, and a popular food scene. Tombstone and Bisbee are known for their Old West vibes, while Sonoita, Elgin, and Willcox are popular locations for wineries and distilleries. The area is also home to Tubac, Yuma, and Sierra Vista. Southern Arizona, which borders Mexico, tends to have a warm, dry climate.

The storied red rocks of Sedona—with names such as Cathedral, Bell, and Courthouse Butte—provide a backdrop of stunning scenery for a destination recognized as much for its healing and spiritual renewal as its vibrant arts community and growing culinary scene. There are plenty of spas and New Age shops, and the city’s four vortexes—areas with high electromagnetic energy with a reputation for spiritual, meditative powers—are visited often. Outdoor recreation, from jeeping to hiking, abounds and is a popular way to explore the landscape. www.sedonaaz.gov W H E R ET R AVE L E R ® GU E ST BO O K

Chefs craft edible empires across Northern Arizona while raising the region’s culinary game

Northern Arizona is having a culinary moment.

In 2022, Flagstaff chef Rochelle Daniel was named a semifinalist in the category of Emerging Chef by the James Beard Foundation for her ambitious Atria, a modern American eatery with global influences. Buoyed by the acclaim, Daniel revealed plans to grow her Flagstaff foodie footprint with three additional concepts—a speakeasy, a pub, and a steakhouse—all set to open by the close of 2023.

And she is not the only one upping the region’s edible credibility.

Phoenix attorney Kevin Heinonen relocated to Flagstaff in 2009 amid the recession. His cousin, a chef, lived in the area and convinced him the mountain town was a food city on the rise.

“Nervous to invest in a pricey downtown lease, we looked at a space on the other side of the train tracks,” says Heinonen. “Though then home to a strip club and dilapidated buildings, we felt this southside neighborhood could serve as the epicenter for an explosion of culinary creativity.”

Enter Tinderbox Kitchen, a rustic yet elegant concept named to serve as that spark.

“We lit a metaphorical match and started a food revolution,” says Heinonen, who would go on to open Annex Cocktail Lounge next door to Tinderbox in 2010 and the fast-casual Tourist Home All Day Café next door to Annex in 2014.

Today, the southside is known for its food and beverage scene. It is home to Cornish Pasty Co., Dara Thai, Lumberyard Brewing Co., Historic Brewing Barrel + Bottle House, Southside Tavern, Morning Glory Café, and Evan’s Fish & Chips, in addition to the Tinderbox family.

Like Heinonen, the husband-and-wife team of Eric and Michelle Jurisin ended up in Northern Arizona from Phoenix.

“We made a pit stop in Jerome during a day trip in 1993, and it changed our lives,” says Eric.

The two craved a smaller town with trees in which to raise their children. Michelle—a chef— found herself peering into the window of a shuttered building and imagined the possibilities. Within the year, the family relocated to the hillside town.

“The ground floor of that building became our first home in the area, and the upstairs became The Haunted Hamburger,” says Michelle.

The couple has methodically invested in old buildings across Jerome and neighboring Cottonwood for decades, reimagining each and growing their empire to include Grapes, Nic’s Italian Steak & Crab House, The Tavern Grille, The Tavern Hotel, Crema Craft Kitchen + Bar, Pizzeria Bocce Patio Bar, STRADA at Bocce, and The Clinkscale Hotel Bar Grill, while welcoming other innovators such as Merkin Vineyards.

Finally, there is Lisa Dahl. The Sedona restaurant pioneer and cookbook author has opened five concepts along the Red Rocks: Dahl & Di Luca Ristorante Italiano, Cucina Rustica Rustic Tuscan Grill, Pisa Lisa Pizzeria Autentico, Mariposa Latin Inspired Grill, and Butterfly Burger Couture Burger Lounge. Her journey to the region was to find a new start, as with the others, after she relocated to Arizona from California in 1994. A self-taught chef, the then-fashion executive found inspiration in the kitchen, building Sedona’s culinary scene as she rebuilt her life.

“I show my love for this area through my food, and I want the world to come up here and taste that love,” says Dahl.

Clockwise, from top left: Chapel of the Holy Cross, Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park, Labyrinth at Alma de Sedona Inn. Opposite: Tlaquepaque Chapel

If you want to detox from the affairs of the world and connect with your spiritual side, then sacred places in natural settings might be your remedy. Of course, Sedona’s famous vortexes have long pulled New Agers to its spectacular Red Rock Country. But, the spiritually focused destination is also home to other spiritual hot spots.

Walk the seven-circuit Labyrinth at Alma de Sedona Inn near the base of Thunder Mountain. The picturesque setting will help unwind your mind as you stroll along the circuitous stone path.

“Labyrinths are nondenominational and non-judgmental,” says innkeeper Lori Reinhold of the ancient practice used as a tool for centering and meditation by diverse faiths. “Animals like to hang out at the labyrinth. They lay down and chill out—there’s something about the energy here.”

She invites individuals or small groups to experience the peace walk. If you have time, register at the inn’s welcome center, which is usually open until 6 p.m., except in July and August when it closes at 5 pm.

At Chapel of the Holy Cross, be mindful of the aroma of burning candles as you pass from the sunny outside world through the threshold of this Catholic chapel hewn into the red cliffs. The flickering light of candles within beckons to the stream of visitors at this site. Local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude commissioned the spectacular architecture in the 1940s. The views here are stunning, too.

Over at Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park, you can find tranquility in the natural setting of the red rocks just outside the hubbub of Sedona’s Uptown.

Also at the base of Thunder Mountain, the Peace Park provides a sacred place for meditation and prayer for visitors of all faiths. So quiet yourself and follow the flags to the main stupa, named for Amitabha, the Buddha of infinite light. Visit daily from dawn to dusk to discover well-being and happiness—the reasons for which the stupas were built.

Meanwhile, adobe walls, stained-glass windows, and Spanish-style arched entryways make the non-

denominational Tlaquepaque Chapel reminiscent of one you’d discover on a hacienda in Mexico when those lands were under Spanish rule. The whitewashed chapel is a place of serenity amid the liveliness of Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village. Like the charming churches of Old Mexico, the chapel was designed as a place for meditation and contemplation. Wrought-iron gates open daily for chapel viewing, usually from 6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

At the Jewish Community of Sedona and the Verde Valley Synagogue, Sedona artists created much of the sacred art found inside. Although the times the locale is open are limited, you can view the majestic bronze menorah outside of the entry.

The Honanki Heritage Site, which is decorated with intriguing petroglyphs, was revered by people who inhabited the Sedona region in ancient times. Realign with nature and connect to the sacred landscape protected by the Coconino National Forest. Open 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, but closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

RAISE A GLASS Page Springs Cellars’ Eric Glomski INTERVIEWED BY MICHELLE GLICKSMAN

NA 34

NORTHERN ARIZONA

What drew you to winemaking?

My passion for eco-conservation led to a strong stewardship of the surrounding desert landscape.

This connection to the land was reconstructed after a sensory experience undeniably correlated a homemade apple wine to the land from which I had picked the apples. Along with representing the land, I also recognized how wine brings people together, which is equally important.

Why was the current locale perfect for a vineyard?

High elevation, soil composition, and a central location within the Verde Valley, were all cornerstones to PSC’s location. Being on the banks of the stunning Oak Creek sure didn’t hurt, either.

eclectic offering of wines, which we call “liquid landscapes.” We produce handcrafted, smallbatch wines that are dictated by that year’s growing season. PSC produces European-style fine wines but offers a diverse selection, including brandy, bubbles, apple wines, and piquettes.

What makes the wine from Page Springs Cellars so wonderful?

Our wines are strong representations of the Arizona landscape.

We produce nearly 60 different wines per year and attempt to create a diversity of options. Our slogan—“Trust your Palate”— urges guests to lean into their own preferences as the artform is truly in the eye of the beholder.

Do you have a personal favorite?

How would you describe your wines?

Page Springs Cellars focuses on representing the land through an

One of our estate vineyards, Colibri Vineyard, produces spicy, medium-bodied red wines that are a personal favorite. 2010 and

2014 were both vintages that will forever sit among our bests.

How does Page Springs Cellars embrace sustainability?

We embrace sustainability as much as we possibly can. This approach to business has always existed, although it took a few years to be able to pull off some of these goals. We are now 100% solar-powered and dark skycompliant, and we reclaim all of our waste water and apply organic practices within our vineyards.

Any nearby locales that you recommend that visitors see (in addition to Page Springs Cellars, of course)?

Sedona, a wonder of the world, is literally 10 minutes away.

The Verde Valley continues to grow, and the offerings get better by the day, including a wine trail that encompasses 22 boutique wineries.

Born and raised on the East Coast, Eric Glomski didn’t originally set out to be a winemaker and vineyard owner. He first headed west to study at Prescott College, where he eventually became an ecology professor.

Soon, he found that he felt a connection to the unique land there. That led him in the direction of wine, which has represented land/regions for centuries.

Glomski began making wine in California, later returning to Arizona to settle in the Verde Valley to create Page Springs Cellars (PSC).

Today, he is the owner/founder and director of winegrowing at PSC, which produces a variety of small-batch wines, has a tasting room and bistro, offers tours, runs a wine club, and hosts events. Visitors can even enjoy yoga in the vineyard or a creekside massage.

CHAPEL OF THE HOLY CROSS Artist Marguerite Brunswig Staude’s idea for a chapel jutting forth from a 200-foot-high red cliff in Sedona was inspired by the Empire State Building. She originally planned to build the chapel in Hungary and developed the original plans with Lloyd Wright (son of Frank Lloyd Wright), but the project was abandoned when World War II began. The Sedona building was completed in 1956, with Richard Hein as the project architect. The iconic chapel is open to the public.
