Kelly, if Asian food shopping and restaurants are of interest, you might like to know about the relatively large Asian District in Mesa, with an array of stores and restaurants. https://www.asiandistrictmesa.com

Thanks, Kyle! I’ll check it out!

Very late, and no real advice. But the idea of place that can get so hot that airplanes can’t take off, eeek.

@Anna: I know, right? I'm a CA native so the bar is pretty high weather wise. I like the temperature "just right" and can deal with it a smidge over and under. Ha!
