Phoenix New Times

This summer, a time when most restaurants see a major slowdown, diners have consistently lined up outside @lingerlongeraz to try Chef Erick Pineda’s menu of Guerrero-style eats inspired by family recipes.

“It’s busier now in the summer than it was in season,” Pineda says of his pop-up, @requinto_phx.

We sat down with the chef to learn the stories behind some of Phoenix’s favorite brunch dishes. Read this week’s cover story by Sara Crocker at phoenixnewtimes.com (link in bio).
