Hot off the press regarding Epazote:

The Hilton El Conquistador’s new Epazote will be hosting four specialty dining events, each highlighting a local vendor of fine food or wine. Specializing in fresh, regional fare, Epazote Kitchen & Cocktails works with these suppliers to bring diners locally sourced delicacies such as Arizona grass fed beef, select locally-produced cheeses and Arizona-grown produce.

Event 1 Feature: Lazy J2 Ranch
Held on March 20, 2013, features a tasting menu centered around the restaurant’s partnership with Lazy J2 Ranch, purveyor of San Rafael Valley natural grass-fed beef. The Lazy J2 Ranch tasting menu offers four courses, each highlighting items sourced exclusively from the ranch. Expect Southwestern beef Carpaccio with fried Poblano, Wilcox tomato salad with mesquite smoked bacon and white and yellow corn relish, braised beef short ribs with goat cheese mashed potatoes and roasted vegetable and a caramel Tres Leches torte for dessert. Yum!
