PHOENIX — Baseball is back and there’s a whole new lineup at Chase Field to get excited about… and we’re not talking about the D-backs roster! More than 30 new food items will debut on Opening Day on Thursday, March 28!
Chase Field Senior Executive Chef, Stephen Tilder, gave a sneak peek of what fans can expect this season.
“A lot of our fan base [ is repeats] and then like you know season ticket holders come back year after year and I love to be able to [show] them something different every time they come in,” said Tilder to ABC15. “Also, you know, it piques the creativity [...], keeps the passion going to change things up.”
What’s the chef’s new favorite item this season?
“On here is the pork belly nacho, just because it's pork belly and I love pork belly. I love... I'm a heat freak [and] it's not really spicy,” shared Tilder. “You have pickled items on there. So, your sweet, your sour, your savory...you [have] a little bit of spice, pork belly is melt-in-your-mouth. So yeah, just an amazing item.”
