    Perfect weather for a car show. Not as big a turnout as years past but still lots of cars to see. The shop tour on Thursday was fun too. The swap meet had a lot of cool old car stuff. Take a good pair of walking shoes and have some fun.

    The Goodguys Show across the country is always a good time. The Ohio and Iowa shows are the biggest in the nation. Good times, sweet cars, and cold beers, what else could he better on a weekend afternoon in the desert. Love checking out all if the 4 wheeled eye candy. Only down star was for not having hand sanitizer available.

    This year's Goodguys SW Nationals was better than the last. It was a beautiful day out at Westworld of Scottsdale. The sun was shining, and the DJ was piping out the oldies. After hearing the weatherman forecast a near 90° day, we decided to go early, arriving around 915/930. Things were in full swing, but entry was a breeze. We purchase online early bird, so we get a better rate, and most importantly, a QR code that shortens any time at a ticket booth, or the wait in any lines. Highly recommend. The arena was nearly empty. Not many vendors, and those who showed up to peddle their wares were mostly chotchkie places. Where are all the tool and parts guys??? Most importantly, where's all the food???? Outside, there were thankfully bleachers this year to comfortably watch the course racing. I do love some burning rubber and engine growls! The crowd hooted and hollered watching the times come up on the board. Families, friends, groups of bros...and me and Mr. P. We ran through rather quickly among the fiberglass and shop-worked restos, looking for the unique garage builds (mostly of a Camaro nature). Hard to come by! Most of these guys were snowbirds who had them restored to spec, and really didn't even know a lot about what they had. We hit the outdoor food area for some sickly sweet lemonade, as we trudged the perimeter in the swap meet area. Some parts, mostly junk. Super congested with too much vehicle and golf cart activity in the pedestrian area to look comfortably. As we neared the west end of the strip, we saw some food. Is it our beloved Piggly's, roasting giant turkey legs on the BBQ? Nope. Nothing that piqued my interest. Mr. P got a fried Philly. It was like an old Hot Pocket that looked like a chimi on the outside. Gross. The outdoor vendor area was equally disappointing. No real parts people outside of Summit, Tucker, Billet and a few smaller outfits. Where was Forgeline? Where was Drag? Their banners hung on the fence as if to announce their attendance. Nada. Lots of t-shirts, Hawaiian shirts, wall signs and the like. While definitely better than covid time, not back to par with precovid time. The price hasn't changed, but the value of the event really has. Plus. $10 for parking isn't awesome. You don't even pay to park at Barrett Jackson. I'll still go every year and hope for the best, but the abysmal participation from car-related companies is sad.

    They stage a car show twice a year at Westworld. The show spans the entire main tent where the merchandise vendors are located and the lower field and lot area, where all of the cars are on display. This is an all day deal, so good thing it's held over 3 days. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/good-guys-car-show-scottsdale?select=saHpTPTUiALB9FbK_-OF8Q#saHpTPTUiALB9FbK_-OF8Q http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/good-guys-car-show-scottsdale?select=jqmdBbxjo28_UI-yOQG8rA#jqmdBbxjo28_UI-yOQG8rA http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/good-guys-car-show-scottsdale?select=4KkK7_A8T9Df0g1RzZbsfQ#4KkK7_A8T9Df0g1RzZbsfQ http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/good-guys-car-show-scottsdale?select=nz0wzjkdYud1Pl_Fmu6L4w#nz0wzjkdYud1Pl_Fmu6L4w http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/good-guys-car-show-scottsdale?select=H4JhRfp6OEuXYAO9DKWw3A#H4JhRfp6OEuXYAO9DKWw3A Around the perimeter of the field is where the food vendors and swap meet are located. The swap meet is a good place to pick up parts & accessories for your car project. Parking can be tough and the walk is long. Since you'll be on your feet all day long, wear comfy shoes. I can't wait for the next show. Return Factor - 90%

    From the Fall 2012 show - James Hatfield's Lincoln Zephyr - very cool Kustom!

    The Scottsdale Culinary Festival is two days of food, drinks and entertainment spread out around…read morethe Scottsdale Civic Center Mall. Calling the event a "culinary" festival might be misleading but "The Food, Wine, Beer, and Music Festival" is kind of long and not very exciting. When you arrive, do not pay for parking because there is plenty of free parking around the area. You can use the money you saved to buy your food tickets to spend at the festival. I got discounted tickets online (2 for $10) from coupon site. These were general entry tickets and did not include food tickets or the Beer Garden and VIP areas. But, did include areas like: Big Green Egg Grill-tainment Zone, Kid's Zone, Teen Cook-Off, and 3 music stages. The event makes great use of both indoor and outdoor space around the center which include the outdoor amphitheater, water fountains, a lagoon, and Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts. We went on Sunday, which was the second and last day of the festival. It was a breezy afternoon but felt warm-ish due to minimal shade. Luckily, many of the booth lines were short, if there was a line at all. Lots of the vendors gave out freebies like coupons, stickers, energy drinks and snack bars. There were many different booths to choose from but not everything we tried was that good. It is really just depends what you pick. However, a few of my favorite tasty items from the day were: Fried Mac N' Cheese Bites with Chipotle Aioli from Aioli Burger, Honey Sesame Chicken Biscuit from Two Brothers and Bailey's Cheesecake Beignets from the Beignet Babe. If day-drinking is your thing, buy tickets for the Beer Garden and you'll probably be happy. If people watching is your thing this event provides plenty of opportunity to do so. And if listening to music while trying food and drinks is your thing, then you'll enjoy spending time at the Scottsdale Culinary Festival.

The only thing that costs money is the parking which can be up to $20. However, one tip I can give you guys is to find a public place a bit further out to park for free. For instance, the Tempe Westside Multi-Generational Center is a public park/facility that you can park at and it's only a 9 minute walk from the festival. As the name implies, there are a ton of art vendors. If you're not from Tempe, there's even more choices because some of downtown Tempe businesses are open during the event. Also, they've got a great selection of food vendors, snacks, and downtown restaurants to choose from. They even have a free water station to fill up your water. I always suggest bringing a small cooler with water bottles and napkins/wet wipes. So even if you're not a fan of the art, it's still a great place to go to if you're a foodie or want to browse other miscellaneous products. For instance, I got a free massage at a physical therapist booth and SugarBee was giving away free apples at one of the events. It's a great place to go if you want to support local.

Live music permeates the air. The shops along Mill Avenue ,where the festival is held, are also open. You can spend more than a few hours, walking the streets and looking at art. Plenty of restaurants to choose from. Port-a-potties every few streets. Street and lot parking available.

    I have been to a few of these Asian Night Markets since the Asian Chamber of Commerce started…read morehosting them here in Arizona. For me, I enjoy the chance to engage with culture, eat a variety of foods, and support our local Asian community. These events typically take place in the parking lot of the AZ International Marketplace in Mesa. Several food and retail vendors fill up the parking lot with all sorts of yummy food and cool merchandise. There is also a stage with live entertainment. I recently attended the Kamayan Festival version of the night market which was part of the celebration for Filipino American History Month. I had a VIP pass to the Sapporo beer garden and enjoyed the perks that came with it. As much as I enjoy being a part of these festivals, the lines are usually insanely long. I come to these to try new things, but find myself getting discouraged by the long waits. I have learned the best time to come to Asian Night Markets is when they first open if you want to try a variety of food.

    I attended the January 2022 edition of this annual event, occurring at Lunar New Year. Centered on…read morethe Asian Pacific American community, this event celebrates cultural diversity, cuisine, art, and music. Organized by the Asian Chamber of Commerce, I know that in the past this required admission but this year's was free. I would not be surprised if it becomes an admission-only event in the future as it was packed from the entry time of 5:30. Given that the city of Mesa has decided to invest considerable resources to brand the area as an Asian enclave, I suspect it will get bigger and more impressive each year. While there are a ton of food trucks here, my advice would be not to show up hungry. Nearly every stall had long lines (save the poor coffee vendor). I would like to say that lines moved quickly, but most did not. I think it is better to have eaten a little something first and then show up and have a snack or two or come later in the evening when the live music really gets going. But if you plan to make this your sole dinner stop it will be frustrating. One perk of a big festival like this is that many smaller caterers/restaurants/food trucks that you haven't heard of will show up. There was plenty that was new to me and gave me a bucket list of places to try. I got some bao buns from Hot Bamboo which has a brick-and-mortar location in Chandler as well as a food truck that often pops up at festivals across town. They make Instagrammable character buns. It's a bit cheesy but the price was good and they were flavorful and satisfying. They were temporarily out of some fillings and the employees were profusely apologetic. It did inspire me to want to one day visit their actual restaurant. The vibe was great and the 2022 edition was a nice blend of people from all walks of life eager to celebrate our post-pandemic world (yeah, Year of the Tiger!). Besides food trucks, there were a few vendors selling gifts and other items but nothing popped out as too special. You can find the schedule on their website. Besides the night market, they also organize some daytime activities at parks that focus less on food and more on culture.
