- A few dining suggestions: My favorite burger place in the world is Relish, on site at the Phoenician. Get the tater tots with the meal. My radio buddies here and I love that place. Favorite restaurant is Roka Akor for sushi and Asian fusion (480-306-8800). I’m hearing Chelsea’s Kitchen, also nearby, is new and outstanding (602-957-2555).
