A Peek into Match Cuisine in Phoenix AZ (Warning “R” Rated)

Match Cuisine recently opened at the hip and unique Found:re Boutique Hotel in Phoenix Arizona. You walk threw an art gallery on the way to your seat. Not all but most of the artwork isn’t appropriate for children. We were welcomed by a larger than life size naked Burt Reynold’s wearing nothing but a flowing blond wig. It was kind of eye catching and I missed the super cool fun thing below on my way in.

At first I thought this was a rug but it’s an interactive projection with moving fish that swim when you step on it. It’s really cool…my photo doesn’t do it justice.

A woman wearing a prickly pear cactus skirt…..looks painful to me.

They had a very WEIRD series of elderly people that are in exam rooms or also at home. Many of these photos show naked parts or next to naked parts I am posting only the tamest of these photos.

The Dining Room has a unique industrial kind of look with a Chef’s Table. The chairs are very solid and heavy made with rebar and heavy metal legs.

The menu is interesting with globally inspired dishes of mostly small plates. Here you do need to order two plates a person even at lunch time so we shared a lot of things.

I ordered a Green Papaya Salad with added Yellowtail and Black Garlic Roasted Potatoes.

The salad was light and refreshing with good flavors. The Yellowtail seemed to be seared far in advance because it was ice cold. Potatoes were slightly overcooked and the Black Garlic seemed burnt off. I note that this restaurant is newly opened and all newly opened restaurants usually open with hiccups that work out in time.

My husband ordered The Grateful Shroom Mushroom Pizza and Ricotta Gnocchi.

I thought the pizza was very tasty with earthy mushroom and truffle flavors. The crust seemed very unusual to both of us and lacked a chewiness and yeast-tee-ous that pizza normally has. I thought it seemed gluten free but it wasn’t.

The manager presented us with a complimentary Eye Popping Dessert named Oaxacan Wreckage.

This dessert was very detailed with micro layer cakes and also was very rich. It was all Ying and no Yang but the Flavors and textures were very unique and wonderful with a tied together with a Chocolate Chili Mole. This place is new to me but I can tell you that this is a dessert place..and you are missing out if you don’t order dessert here.

Match Cuisine also offers a dog friendly patio with a several item DOG MENU……I so wanted to bring my dogs here….but my husband insisted that we check out the place first. It turned out to be the correct decision because I would have missed all the eye acting artwork.
