Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You

We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.

$15,000

​Last week I ranted that Phoenix needs everything from a Farrell’s to bad Chinese food to a grilled cheese shop to some truly original ideas.

Some of you were peeved, as expected. But more often, readers got in the spirit and offered their own suggestions — from low brow to high. Mostly love. I love it. This list is for you, readers. I hope we’re able to report back soon that some of your greasy wishes came true. 1. White Castle. You really want White Castle.

2. Poutine on a Stick 

Really. Or out of the back of a truck.

Find out what that means after the jump.

“I know Tuck Shop did it/does it (though perhaps not by name) and a few other high end restaurants like to claim they offer some variation of it, but a food cart selling poutine would absolutely clean up in this town,” one reader drooled.

“Poutine on a stick would take the Valley by storm, because then you could eat it while driving,” another chimed in.

​7. Cream Puffs

I had never heard of Beard Papa, which one reader pronounces “the best cream puffs in the world,” but hey, there’s room for that in Phoenix. Bring it on.  

8. Pinkberry

I couldn’t agree more.
