Phoenix’s Best Hotel Restaurants | Eater Phoenix

"While the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort’s Kembara sits just across the hall from chef Angelo Sosa’s other Phoenix restaurant, the celebrated Tía Carmen, they are worlds apart when it comes to cuisine focus — literally. Zooming in on Sosa’s passion for Asian flavors, acquired during his extensive travels throughout the continent, Kembara’s menu is an interpretive love letter to dishes from Chiang Mai in Thailand to Tokyo and beyond. Think things like lamb spring rolls, chicken satay skewers swathed in a rich cashew sauce, crab fried rice, and banana leaf Icelandic cod bursting with sambal zest. Don’t pass on the cocktails either — Kembara’s sake offerings are one of the best in the state." - Asonta Benetti
