Tucked neatly in the north corner of Maricopa County, Carefree is just a few miles away from Scottsdale and Phoenix, but a world away from the bustle of the city. If locals are craving art museums, festivals, great shopping, professional sports or a lively nightlife, they simply jump in the car and drive five miles down the road to Scottsdale, but if they are in the mood to relax at the spa, walk the historic “old west” trails or explore the Sonoran Desert on a jeep tour, unwind right in their backyard. The town of Carefree may be small, but its personality is immense. Commonly known as where “cowboys meet caviar,” this area of Arizona has an alluring folklore, serene sandy dunes and relaxing, tranquil surroundings. Living Carefree, those who call this town their home continue to hear the stories of a history-rich, “old west” folklore while allowing the meditative surroundings to replenish their spirit. |

| Cafe Zuzu adds Bistro-style twist to American Comfort Cuisine | |
Zuzu, the nick-name of a fantastic local cook, is the inspiration for the menu and name of this “American comfort food” café with a twist of bistro style. Café ZuZu has 91 seats, a beautiful courtyard patio and swank lounge. The open kitchen serves forth honest, flavorful American comfort food coupled with fast, friendly service.
| |
The atmosphere of this café is probably one the most attention-grabbing of its kind—including floor to ceiling glass that disappears when the weather permits and transforms to bring the outdoors inside, and a lobby bar that morphs into an espresso bar, then into a full service soda fountain, and finally into a community table. The food, although classic, American home-style favorites, is just as unique. In addition to having what it claims as “best breakfast in town”, Café Zuzu’s lunch and dinner specialties include Beef Stroganoff, Chicken & Dumplings and Braised Short Ribs. Everything is made from scratch: eggs are organic, jams and jellies come from local harvesters and produce is delivered fresh from the Valleys’ Duncan Farms. Desserts are a distinct feature of ZuZu; homemade pies including Lemon Meringue and Deep Dish Apple, malts, shakes and ice cream specialties are served from the exhibition soda fountain. The dining room is designed to transition seamlessly from breakfast to lunch to dinner and is open continuously from 6:00 am – 10pm (Sun – Thur) and 6am - 11pm (Fri-Sat).
Café Zuzu does not lack in distinctive and original special events to offer Scottsdale diners either—to celebrate the cuisine of ZuZu and to recognize the bounty from ZuZu’s special purveyors, Chef Wiley hosts “Monday Night Chef’s Table”. Three course meals are paired with wines and offer a chance to taste -- and discuss with the chef -- the food ZuZu is fast becoming known for. Started in September, Monday Night Chef’s Table is held every Monday and will continue through next year. Check our “Special Events” section for more details on the latest, upcoming Monday Night Chef’s Table dinner choices. | |

If you’re craving art museums, festivals, great shopping, professional sports or a lively nightlife, just jump in the car and drive five miles down the road to Scottsdale, but if you are in the mood to relax at the spa, walk the historic “old west” trails or explore the Sonoran Desert on a jeep tour, unwind at the renowned Carefree Resort and Villas.

Commonly known as where “cowboys meet caviar,” this area of Arizona has an alluring folklore, serene sandy dunes and relaxing, tranquil surroundings.

Arizona provides a rich history and culture, breath-taking scenery, arts, entertainment, sports, and a climate that is varied enough to accommodate any type of outdoor recreation, no matter what the season.
