For the first time since the pandemic, the “Check, Please!” Arizona Food Festival is back and in a new location to boot.
This year’s event, which helps raise money for Arizona PBS, the channel that hosts “Check, Please!” for viewers all across the state, took place in Fountain Hills instead of Phoenix. The festival took over Fountain Park and brought together restaurants from all over Arizona to show off their culinary proficiency on April 11.
One such restaurant was EMBER at We-Ko-Pa resort, a steakhouse in Fort McDowell. EMBER served samples of chilled pesto pasta and wine to attendees during the festival.
