Michael Monti is perhaps best known as the proprietor of Monti’s La Casa Vieja at 100 S. Mill Avenue in Tempe, but the married father of four is a proud Phoenician, too, and his enthusiasm for the East Valley shines through in his blog, 100 S. Mill Ave.
Although Monti’s blog includes the expected food stuff (like dinner specials at Monti’s La Casa Vieja), the bulk of his blogs focus on events in Tempe, like nearby Cactus League baseball games, Kenpo karate classes, and jazz shows.
Monti’s fascinated with Arizona history, too, so he sometimes explores the legends of our state in his blogs. He provides an interesting perspective, especially considering that Monti’s La Casa Vieja is considered one of the Valley’s historical landmarks.
Whether it’s a tasty steak or a tasty tidbit of Tempe trivia, Michael Monti feeds us well at 100 S. Mill Ave.
