Bennett Insurance Group Presents: Eight's Check, Please! Arizona Festival


April 22 - 28. Highlighting Arizona’s independent culinary scene, Eight’s Check, Please! Arizona Festival will showcase eats from over 35 restaurants previously featured on Check, Please! Arizona in addition to craft beer and wine, cooking demonstrations, a James Beard Award winners’ panel hosted by McGrath, and a chance for fans to audition for a spot on the show. CityScape from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are $60 for general admission and includes food as well as wine and beer sampling. VIP tickets are $100 and include a James Beard Award winners’ private chef seminar; exclusive wine tastings; early entry to the festival 30-minutes before general admission; and VIP valet parking.

Watch PBS for season three of Eight’s popular restaurant review series in which Arizona residents, just like you, share dining-out experiences in a lively roundtable discussion. Each week, Check, Please! Arizona features a trio of guests who dine and then review three local restaurants they recommended to each other. James Beard award-winning chef Robert McGrath hosts the half-hour program.

Don't let Robert McGrath’s “aw-shucks” attitude and well-worn Stetson cowboy hat fool you: Host Robert McGrath of Check, Please! Arizona is one of America's finest chefs and restaurateurs. Winner of the prestigious James Beard "Best Chef in America: Southwest" Award, and founding chef of both Roaring Fork and Renegade Canteen restaurants in Scottsdale, Arizona, McGrath has been a nationally acclaimed chef for nearly two decades. Born in Texas, McGrath's culinary career began with classical training in France, followed by prestigious postings, including chef de cuisine at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin; executive chef of the Four Seasons Hotel in Houston; and chef/owner of Sierra Grill in Houston, and Brio Vista in Austin.

Festival Location: CityScape - 1 East Washington Street, Phoenix, AZ 85004

Show Times: Thursdays at 7 p.m. & again on Saturdays at 3 p.m. on Eight HD
