It’s been said that the more things change the more they stay the same, and we showcased that on this broadcast from a restaurant that’s as relevant today as it was when it opened its doors more than 60 years ago…Saguaro Corners!

Dave Musso, Matt Russell, Chef C.J. Hamm & James Blue

Our celebrity co-host was James Blue, food and beverage writer with 520 Eats and certified sommelier with Quail Distributing. James talked about his top food moments of 2016 and offered some predictions on what he thinks will make food news in 2017. We also heard from Saguaro Corners GM Dave Musso, who walked us through his craft beer program and gave us an idea of some cocktails that are trending at the Corners. Chef C.J. Hamm sat down with us as well to talk Saguaro Corners cuisine, his approach to comfort food, and his plans for an upcoming beer dinner with Barrio Brewing Co.
