We also checked in with Melissa D’Auria of the Tucson Botanical Gardens, who told us everything we needed to know about the upcoming Savor Food & Wine Festival. She also brought along Chef Jamie Eldredge of Noble Hops, who shared some of his plans and strategies for the delicious event. Our featured guest was Jason Machamer of Trident Grill, who spoke with great confidence and passion about football fare in the countdown to Super Bowl XLIX! Brat burgers, steamed shrimp and habanero-jerk wings were the order of the day, and they surely belong on your Super Bowl table!
