Celebrate the new year all month long with these additions at Ghini’s French Caffe

Jan 12, 20222 min read

One great thing about Ghini’s French Caffe (there’s actually a lot of great things, but this is just one of them) is how fresh chef and owner Coralie Satta keeps the menu. And I mean that both literally and figuratively.

Every month you can find a variety of new items. Some months include more additions than other months but there’s always something.

For January, Ghini’s is offering 4 additions: two beverages and two food items.

To start, breakfast is served with Bacon Hot Honey French Toast. For this dish,  which is also perfect for sharing,  thick cut French toast gets smothered with butter, chopped bacon, and hot local Tone Nutrition honey. This dish is also available sans bacon or substituted with any other breakfast meat, such as sausage.

Every month you can look forward to a new burger. For January, it’s a Juicy Mushroom French Peppercorn Sauce Burger. Yep, it’s a mouthful, but really, it’s a mouthful. This baby gets topped with cracked pepper aioli, grilled tomato, grilled mushrooms and melted gruyere before getting smothered in a creamy and savory cognac infused peppercorn sauce on grilled La Baguette roll. This one’s served with a French pickle.

Over in the beverage department, Ghini’s is offering two special creations. Mexican Hot Chocolates & Mochas features spiced Mexican hot chocolate covered in whipped cream and dusted liberally with cinnamon. Hibiscus Mimosa is perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner and includes Champagne mixed with a fresh hibiscus infusion.

Don’t forget: Ghini’s is all about supporting local as much as possible, from varying food suppliers to its in-store merchandise, to plateware, and more.

Ghini’s French Cafe is located at 1803 E Prince Rd. For more information, including hours and full menu, visit ghiniscafe.com.

IOU Sushi III has closed. The all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant on North Oracle Road announced the news on Facebook after about 10 years in Tucson. “This is the hardest post I’ve had to write,” the owners said. The post continued, “we have met some great friends who have become family to us.” Tucson Foodie first visited the restaurant in 2017, when it operated as IOU Sushi IV.

Anne Rysdale built @sheltercocktaillounge in 1961 with concrete walls, lava rock, and Cold War nerves. Today, owners Pam Santangelo and Kevin Breutzmann keep the Tucson bar exactly as regulars remember it. Inside, martinis share space with JFK memorabilia, a vintage atomic chandelier, and a suit of armor named Charlie. “Tucson is changing so much, but this has stayed the same. It’s a time capsule,” Santangelo said.

Scratch-made Japanese ramen goes far beyond instant noodles, with rich broths like tonkotsu, miso, and shoyu. Tucson has more specialty ramen shops than you might expect. Here’s where to find them around town.🍜
