By popular request, Tucson Foodie has started a series of vegan meals on Mondays. Look out for our meat-free meal every so often on Monday.
It’s a brand new week and perhaps you’ve got an unfamiliar craving making a scene deep down on your grumblin’ belly.
This week, Ermanos Craft Beer and Wine Bar has you covered if you’re looking for a meatless treasure on Fourth Avenue.
For one day only on Monday, May 17, they’re dishing out a Marinated Portobello Mushroom Sandwich with vino goat cheese, Muhammara, and arugula on a toasted brioche bun. If you’ve never tasted Muhammara before, it’s a Syrian dip made with walnuts and roasted peppers. From the words of Ermanos’ staff, it’s “savory, subtly sweet with just enough of spice.”
If you’re unable to get down there before it vanishes from the menu, don’t fret because they’ve got a menu full of other tasty surprises, with one-off specialty items making frequent appearances.
The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. on Sunday – Thursday, and 11 a.m. – midnight on Friday and Saturday.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
