The Phoenician’s J&G Steakhouse is known for many things, from its Michelin-starred founder Jean-Georges Vongerichten to being one of culinary icon Howard Seftel’s favorite Arizona restaurants. With countless accolades, Executive Chef Jacques Qualin clearly knows when to let the ingredients shine, as with the starkly decadent Chilled Shellfish Platter ($41). Featuring meaty lobster, briny oysters, mellow clams, jumbo shrimp and perfectly firm mussels – delivered fresh daily from Alaska and Nova Scotia – it’s a can’t-miss experience that coolly complements summer’s heat. 6000 E. Camelback Road, Scottsdale; 480.214.8000; www.jgsteakhousescottsdale.com. AUGUST 2016 |
