So if you read part 1, you know that I was spending a weekend with my family who has a wide range of dietary restrictions or choices. Well during this weekend my father made it clear that the only thing he wanted for father's day was to take my nephew to the Scottsdale train park.
This left me with a challenge, "Where the hell I'm a going to take everyone to eat that doesn't suck?"
Answer: Cowboy Ciao
It was perfect!! It had good food, lots of vegetarian options, "normal" enough stuff for my dad, gluten-less options for my brother, and it looked like it would get through the picky parent patrol.
I got the Steak Tips Linguine,with arugula, cherry tomatoes, porcini mushrooms, pecorino, sherry and cream.
Aaron got the Exotic Mushroom Pan Fry, cremini, button, oyster, cepe, lobster, black trumpet, shiitake, morel, and yellow foot mushrooms in ancho cream over double-cooked polenta, topped with grilled portabellini, avocado, tomato and cotija cheese.
Dad got the Smoked Duck & Brie Sandwich, applewood-smoked duck breast on marble rye with arugula, bacon, double crème brie and caramelized chipotle/granny smith apples, served with roasted yam salad.
Jane got a salad, which she enjoyed, but I didn't think was exciting enough to photograph. And my nephew, he just got a plain cheese quesadilla.
It was all very good, I know because I tasted everything. If you are in the downtown Scottsdale area check out them out, especially if you have vegetarians in your party.
