Phoenix things to do: February 19-21

Last week there were festivals and events at every turn. This weekend…eh, not so much.

SUNDAY

Brunch @ Mission
From 2 p.m. – sundown they serve all you can eat pork tacos for $16. The pork looks freshly roasted, carved in front of you. There are a multitude of toppings. The atmosphere is nice…and even better if you order a drink called the Primarita — Partida, lime juice, and agave syrup.
