Tasting Tucson…{WILKO}

I first came to WILKO for dinner with my friend Marisela, and instantly fell in love with the open kitchen, and the warm lighting. It was a calming yet fun ambience, where we even met German engineers in town for a conference at the University of Arizona, and then I instantly remembered to ask for their brunch menu. No, not because I slightly judge restaurants based on their brunch menu, well maybe a little, but my parents would be in town and we do enjoy a good breakfast! All around WILKO has not disappointed. Water in repurposed wine bottles, just how we do it in Portugal with our wineJust love a restaurant with an open kitchen  The lighting is just as calming when the lanterns twinkle against the night sky

Lemmon. Plus, all I was craving was eggs Benedict, and this was a great twist on the flavors.Dad’s French Toast with Bacon chunks, cinnamon apples, and maple syrup, now that’s a manly breakfastMom’s dense ricotta pancakes with a tangy lemon marmaladebeautiful image of WILKO’s cheese board
