It’s a melding of classic Italian décor meets New Age cozy, with a menu of Italian favorites, and nightly live piano music by local musicians.

The Italian Daughter Cucina + Cocktails, a restaurant and piano bar, opened its doors in April. Created by esteemed restaurateur Melissa Maggiore—daughter of the late wellknown chef Tomaso Maggiore—the menu offers a selection of elevated Italian cuisine, featuring handcrafted pastas, craft charcuterie boards, Neapolitan pizzas, and desserts, as well as Italian-inspired craft cocktails, gelato martinis, and a curated selection of wines and beers.

Open for dinner daily, as well as lunch on weekends. 23655 N. Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale; www.theitaliandaughter.com

Ancient Artistry The essence of smoke is in the air at Renata’s Hearth. Here, ancient Latin recipes are translated into the modern era, using authentic Southwest ingredients made with Old World preperations. Located at the iconic Arizona Biltmore, A Waldorf Astoria Resort— which recently underwent an extensive multimillion dollar reimagination—this new restaurant is already a popular destination.

Each dish here is designed to “wow”—both in flavor and presentation. Menu options include the Mole Negro Rubbed Smoked Wagyu Brisket, Grilled Branzino, and Renata’s Pozole Blanco. There are also two signature carts—a craft cocktail cart, where drinks are artfully crafted by Renata’s signature Mezcal Mavens, as well as a fresh guacamole and Spanish charcuterie cart. For the drinks, the Los Muertos and Smoked Pineapple are both crafted in a smoking cloche.

Outdoors, settle in for a drink at the new Spire Bar, a tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright, whose architecture influenced the original design of the resort. 2400 E. Missouri Ave., Phoenix; www.renatashearth.com

f you find yourself venturing to or vacationing in Tucson (also referred to as the Old Pueblo), there is plenty of fun—and deals—to be had. Here, you can take in all the natural spoils the desert has to offer without breaking the bank.

Whether you’re looking for some sound Mexican cuisine for cheap, on the prowl for Old West-centric attractions, or in desperate need of exploring the beautiful surrounding landscape, Tucson has the tools available to allow you to treat yourself—and save a little extra money while you’re at it.

CENTER FOR CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY

TUCSON MUSEUM OF ART AND HISTORIC BLOCK

FREE AND INEXPENSIVE ATTRACTIONS No trip to Tucson would be complete without gazing upon the breathtaking architecture found at the Mission San Xavier del Bac (www.sanxaviermission. org). Not only is this historic landmark consistently rated as one of Tucson’s top attractions, but it is also free to visit (select hours). Truly a must for history buffs.

Another popular attraction that’ll allow you to leave with the same amount of money in your pocket that you walked in with is the University of Arizona’s Center For Creative Photography (www.kennerly.ccp.arizona.edu). Here, visitors can get lost in photographs from 270 archival collections, which include a variety of images from notable 20th-century photographers. Check for re-opening plans.

Can’t get enough art? The Tucson Museum of Art and Historic Block (www.tucsonmuseumofart.org) will feed your creative side for just $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, $7 for youth ages 13-17, and free admission for children 12 and under. Here, you’ll find artwork ranging from Western, Latin American, modern and contemporary, along with five historic houses that provide a glimpse of Tucson’s past.

Presidio San Augustin del Tucson Museum (www.tucsonpresidio.com) has a slice of history to experience at the inexpensive price of $5 for adults,

23

$1 for children ages 6-14, and free for those ages 6 and under. The museum is a reconstruction of the original Tucson Presidio built in 1775, and the price of admission enables guests to walk through an excavation of a 2,000-year-old pit house, the Spanish Presidio (including a barracks exhibit), and a 1850s renovated Sonoran row home. Reenactments are also available during select day; you can check their website or call ahead for event and reenactment schedules.

ADMIRING THE BEAUTY OF THE DESERT There’s nothing quite like the Sonoran Desert’s natural beauty. The saguaro cacti found scattered throughout the region, perched upon towering mountains, is a sight unlike any other. Combine that with rock formations and the vibrant colors of the desert meshed with Tucson’s big blue sky, and you’ll find yourself running out of

Tucson has a giant bike path that circles around the city limits and its surrounding area, named The Loop (www.webcms. pima.gov/government/the_loop). On this path, bicyclists can travel through Pima County, Marana, Oro Valley, Tucson and South Tucson, all along one connected bike route.

If you’d rather get your exercise on your own two feet instead of two wheels, you’ll find an abundance of trails and scenic viewpoints near and around Tucson. Mt. Lemmon’s Windy Point Vista (https:// www.fs.usda.gov) provides an opportune Instagram moment, with breathtaking views of the city of Tucson and the neighboring Santa Catalina Mountains, via the Mt. Lemmon Highway. The lookout is equipped with parking, a viewing area, walkways and restrooms.

For hikers, Saguaro National Park (www.nps.gov/sagu) West and East provide a variety of trailheads to explore,

from moderate levels of difficulty to strenuous. On the east side of the park, you’ll find views of the Santa Catalina Mountains, washes, and small bodies of water. The west side features petroglyphs from the prehistoric Hohokam people, found on the Signal Hill Trail in the Tucson Mountain District.

AFTER A LONG DAY, IT’S TACO TIME After a busy day of wandering the city and desert in all its glory, you’ll probably need to refuel. What better way to do so than with some fresh tacos? The taco options in the Old Pueblo are plenty. Aqua con El Nene (www.aquiconelnene.com) serves up $3.15 tacos at its two locations, and its special lorenzas—toasted taco with cheese—are just $4. At Taqueria Juanitos (www.juanitostaqueria.com), the street tacos are only $1.95 each, and their dessert is even cheaper, at $1 per delicious churro.

Looking for a good happy hour spot?

El Charro Café (www.elcharrocafe.com) is the place to be, as their happy hour special is packed with menu items such as $6 house and fruta margaritas, and $4.95 fiesta hour Mini Chimichangas (4), available 2-6 p.m. daily.

GETTING AROUND If you need an inexpensive way to get around, The Sun Link streetcar (www.sunlinkstreetcar.com) provides rides through Mercado, Downtown Tucson, Historic Fourth Avenue, and the Main Gate Square/ University of Arizona main campus area.

Pay by the ride with the GoTucson Transit app, get a $2 pass for two hours, or purchase a one-day SunGo ticket for $4.50, available at Sun Link stops. Kids 5-years-old and under ride for free.

THE GUIDE OUR

Rock legend Alice Cooper famously rediscovered this rare Andy Warhol silkscreen several years ago in his Scottsdale garage, where he had originally stored (and then had forgotten about) it. Now, Cooper will sell the piece—a vibrant red Little Electric Chair acrylic and silkscreen on canvas from Warhol’s “Death and Disaster” series from 1964-1965—during the 2021 Fall Larsen Art Auction on Oct. 23. The public can view it on June 24 at Larsen Gallery during the free Scottsdale ArtWalk, from 6:30-9 p.m. Additional viewing times throughout the summer will be announced at www.larsengallery.com. 3705 N Bishop Lane, Scottsdale

eed a few new ideas on how to chill out this summer?

These refreshing local craft cocktails are not just cool, but they will keep you cool no matter how hot it gets in the Valley. ALISON BAILIN BATZ

1. SECRET GARDEN

At Ling & Louie’s Asian Bar and Grill, they’ve mastered the pro move of adding prosecco to elicit a lighter take on several of their spirited offerings. This is a favorite, as the sparkling stunner is poured atop a blend of herbaceous Roku Japanese Gin and Yellow Chartreuse, as well as fresh ginger, kiwi puree, and pineapple, ramping up the tropical flavors while balancing the more earthy spirits with ease. $13 at www.lingandlouies.com

2. GUAVA COCONUT

Diego Pops wants its guests to be on island time. How do we know? They serve up this sweet,

nutty, tropical cocktail in an actual coconut, Gilligan’s Islandstyle. Each sip offers a hint of Ciroc Coconut Vodka, along with actual coconut water—known for its hydration abilities—plus fresh-squeezed guava juice and house-made sweet and sour. $13 at www.diegospops.com

3. 3 DAYS & 3 NIGHTS

Sometimes a little goes a long way. Platform 18 at Century Grand proves the adage true with this low-alcohol option. It features only small amounts of both Lustau Jarana Fino Sherry infused with Douglas fir tips and La Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco Tequila. The spirits are

then paired with cooling pickled cucumbers; jasmine; serrano peppers; soda water; and galangal, an Asian plant that resembles ginger. $12 at www.centurygrandphx.com

4. AMALFI SPRITZ

zest and the turmeric some bite.

The equal parts herbal, zesty, and sweet juice is combined with Jack Daniels Whiskey and demerara syrup, which has a brown sugar flavor to balance the zesty spice. $17 at www.cottontaillounge.com

Dreaming of hanging seaside in a cabana off the Southern Italian coast? While The Sicilian Butcher isn’t offering free airfare, they can make your taste buds feel as if they're already there with this light, beachy beauty. It is a dizzyingly delicious blend of prosecco, Fiorente Elderflower, delicate Orchard Pear Liqueur tonic water, and Combier Le Bleu, which turns the drink turquoise to mimic a seascape. $12 www.thesicilianbutcher.com

6. THE DAUGHTER

5. THE COTTONTAIL

7. GINGER MARGARITA

Vibrantly orange in a sleek coupe with rosemary garnish, this signature offering at Cottontail Lounge looks like an actual ripe carrot top just waiting to be plucked by a hungry bunny, thanks to its base ingredient: a juice made from carrots, oranges, and turmeric. The carrot offers an herbal sweetness; the orange

Sweet with a bubbly effervesce, The Italian Daughter—run by the actual daughter of culinary icon Tomaso Maggiore, who passed early this year—has a winner with this prosecco-infused and perfectly pink drink. It is made by combining the prosecco with Belvedere Vodka, and both prickly pear and strawberry syrups, before being finished with a good squeeze of lemon for just a hint of acid. $15 at www.theitaliandaughter.com Much like J&G Steakhouse’s award-winning menu, this cocktail combines the best of the Southwest with subtle Asian accents, thanks to the addition of house-made ginger simple syrup and a dusting of ginger-infused salt lining the rim to the traditional tequila and lime recipe. $17 at www.jgsteakhousescottsdale.com
