"The story behind Pinyon reads like something out of a foodie's dream journal. Adam Strecker, CEO and founder of Hi Noon Hospitality, didn't just decide to open a Mediterranean restaurant on a whim. He embarked on what he calls "an epic journey through the Mediterranean Basin," immersing himself in timeless recipes, coastal traditions, and vibrant food cultures from Spain and Italy to Morocco and Turkey."
"At the heart of their kitchen sits a Josper Grill: a hand-forged, live-fire, charcoal oven and grill imported straight from Barcelona. For those unfamiliar, this isn't just any piece of equipment. Chefs around the world prize Josper grills for their ability to sear, smoke, and elevate every ingredient that touches their grates. The culinary team is leveraging this Spanish powerhouse to create dishes that balance smoke, texture, and depth. Think whole roasted turbot, prime flat iron, and Pinyon's signature porterhouse."
Hi Noon Hospitality will open Pinyon on October 29 in Old Town Scottsdale. Pinyon presents a coastal Mediterranean concept that celebrates flavors and techniques from 22 countries across the Mediterranean Basin. Adam Strecker, CEO and founder of Hi Noon Hospitality, traveled through the Mediterranean Basin, immersing in recipes, coastal traditions, and markets from Spain and Italy to Morocco and Turkey. The kitchen centers on a Barcelona-imported Josper Grill, a hand-forged live-fire charcoal oven that sears, smokes, and elevates ingredients. The culinary team plans dishes such as whole roasted turbot, prime flat iron, Pinyon's porterhouse, and charcoal-grilled skewers that balance smoke, texture, and depth.
