Jackson Bar + Eatery executive chef Izaak Morhaim will show off his skills at the tenth Dinner with Chefs at PY Steakhouse starting at 6 p.m. on Thursday, October 26.

Each month, Casino Del Sol Resort and PY Steakhouse executive chef Ryan Clark collaborates with a different local chef for a three-course wine dinner highlighting two different cuts of beef. No cuts of beef will be repeated for the entire year and 24 different cuts will be used.

A different chef is featured each month as well, so techniques and styles are excitingly diverse.

Scavo is this month’s featured collaboration chef.

Tickets are $65 per person. To make a reservation, call (520) 324-9350.

Tucson’s resorts offer some of the region’s most memorable dining, from Sonoran-inspired steakhouses to poolside grills with mountain views. Whether you’re staying overnight or stopping in for dinner, these properties make the meal part of the experience. Additionally, the variety across these resorts featured here spans far beyond a single style of dining. Guests can settle into a fine-dining room overlooking the Santa Catalinas, grab tacos by the pool, or join a chef-led cooking class before dinner. Each property brings its own take on desert hospitality, so this guide breaks down where to eat and what makes each spot worth the trip.🧳🌞 @arizonainn @canyonranch @casinodelsolresort @playddcsoaz @elconquistadoresort @haciendadelsolaz @jwstarrpass @lodgeonthedesert @loewsventana @miravalarizona @miravistaresort @omnitucsonnational @solana_spanish_villas @tanqueverderanch @jthtucson @ritzcarltondovemountain @westinlapaloma @whitestallionranchaz Tucsonfoodie.com #tucsonfoodie #tucsonazTucson’s resorts offer some of the region’s most memorable dining, from Sonoran-inspired steakhouses to poolside grills with mountain views.

@Thedistrict520 has taken over a Tucson address with nearly two decades of history. Once home to Pastiche, the space sat dark and gutted for two years after a difficult chapter that left the building severely damaged. Now, longtime Pastiche regulars Gabriel Cordova and Tracy Hien have brought 3025 N. Campbell Ave. back to life. The result is something entirely new: a sports bar with nine 4K screens, shuffleboard, a pool table, and a scratch-cooking approach to burgers, wings, shrimp, and more. From rebuilding the space themselves to receiving the blessing of Pastiche owner Pat Connors’ widow, Julie, the story behind The District is about more than opening a restaurant. It is about giving a wounded neighborhood landmark another chapter. Read @sea_lyon’s full story at Tucsonfoodie.com.
