For a Friend in Tucson.

I have a close friend moving to Tucson and would like to send a gift certificate to a fine restaurant in the local area. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
CocoDan

    While well known on this board, not sure if locally it is a secret or also well known – I think introducing your friend to Café Poca Cosa would be a great gift contemporary, creative Mexican. Menu changes to match what is seasonally available. Second Vivace for Italian.

        What area of town will he be moving to? Your price range?

          Easily 10 - 12 places will come to mind for many regulars on this board. Do you want to narrow down the cuisine type and/or price point some?

            This gift needs to be a Tucson's insider spot. Can be ethnic or creative American. Was hoping to have it be somewhat memorable. Not looking for cheap.
