City of Gastronomy

Tucson was the first city in the US named as a World City of Gastronomy by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

This mural was found on the east wall of Zio Peppe, a restaurant serving pizza and pasta.

A new mural by Ashley White, Modern Aquarian, was sponsored by the Downtown Tucson Partnership. The mural is temporary, so head over there soon to see it:

I visited on February 28th — near sunset, so the trees along the curb didn't cast shadows on the mural. (I took the last photo during the day, when I discovered the shadows.)
