An extension of Artlink's First Friday monthly art walk, the Third Friday event gives patrons another opportunity to visit the art galleries, shops, restaurants and bars that make downtown Phoenix a unique destination. The social street fair atmosphere isn’t as prevalent as on First Fridays, but artists and gallerists host wine and cheese receptions, and the air still feels festive. Must-sees on Roosevelt include a quirky collective called Five15 arts (515 E. Roosevelt Street; (602)256-0150; www.515arts.com), the more sophisticated eye lounge (419 E. Roosevelt Street; (602)430-1490; www.eyelounge.com), and Pravus (501 E. Roosevelt Street; (602)334-6299; ).

A traditional New Orleans yeast pastry that is deep-fried and served hot with a generous dusting of confectioners’ sugar. Savory beignets, such as herb or crab, are also very popular. The name comes from the French word for “Fritter.” The French word sounds like something Gerard Depiardeu might say, whereas Fritter comes straight from porch sittin’ Uncle Jed . Beignets anyone?
