There is so much to experience in China, and it’s hard to know where to start. When you’re in larger cities like Shanghai, follow magazines and other media outlets on the WeChat messaging app to find fun things like gallery openings and concerts. With centuries-old temples, brand-new skyscrapers, and everything in between, China offers lots to see and do even on short trips. There are some things to know before you go, though, like downloading helpful apps before you enter the country.

I love trying local wine wherever we travel, and the Arizona wine lists at @craft64scottsdale and @beckettstable in Phoenix were wonderful showcases of the state’s offerings. What’s the most surprisingly good wine you’ve had lately? 🍷

I don’t know that my dad and I had a single bad meal or even a bad dish in all our time in Phoenix, but our final dinner turned out to be the most special of all. In his search for places to dine, my dad came across a claim to fame that caught his attention: best grilled cheese in Arizona. Serving what they describe as “sophisticated comfort food,” Beckett’s Table has a grilled cheese sandwich featuring pancetta and four different kinds of cheeses melted inside cheesy focaccia rolls and served with roasted red pepper tomato soup. It’s a dish they’ve kept on the menu for years, and it keeps popping up on “best of” lists across the country. Chef Beckett even shared the recipe with @azcentral. Beckett’s Table has live music and half-price bottles of Arizona wine every Sunday evening, and we made the earliest reservation we could to beat the crowd. The wine list contains 17 selections from around the state, and we split a bottle of Arizona chardonnay that was crisp and delightful. After sharing the grilled cheese appetizer, which truly was award-worthy, I enjoyed shrimp and grits with braised greens and mustard tomato jus as my entree. Dad was on a roll with the soup and chose Beckett’s green chili pork stew with cotija cheese, fresh cilantro, and house-made corn tortillas.

Why We Travel: The Family Who Brought the World to Winchester

Mike Ballard 16 May 2017

I attended my first destination wedding last weekend in Orange Beach, Alabama. My childhood friend, Kyle Nuckolls, married his best friend, Lisa, in a beachside sunset ceremony, and I couldn't be happier for the two of them. It's fitting that Kyle …
