But I had a really fun experience last weekend that I just needed to share, especially since the weekend is now upon us. Some friends and I drove out to Queen Creek&#8217;s western-inspired San Tan Flat Saloon &amp; Grill to celebrate a friend&#8217;s birthday on Saturday evening.\u00a0He wanted to try something a little different and, let me tell you, this place was truly different.\u00a0San Tan flat\u00a0was happening (think of a more family-friendly version of Scottsdale&#8217;s Greasewood Flat). The outdoor area was decked out in rustic picnic tables, fire pits dotted the property and country music filled the air (and a band was scheduled to take the stage later that evening). Now, I am not a country music-lovin&#8217;, barbecue-grubbin&#8217; kind of gal, but this was such a fun change. My friends and I pulled up to a picnic table and ordered burgers, fries and a really delicious salmon salad and plenty of beers to go around. However, the best part was the dessert: we ordered a s&#8217;mores kit, complete with plump marshmallows, chocolate bars\u00a0(more than we needed, which was a plus)\u00a0and graham crackers. We took turns gathering around the fire pits and smushing our burnt marshmallows\u00a0into sweet sandwiches. So, moral of the story: If you are looking for a unique spot to enjoy this delectable weather we&#8217;ve been having, maybe a trip to San Tan Flat Saloon &amp; Grill&#8211;yes, in Queen Creek&#8211;might be in the cards. 6185 W.
