Palm Springs Culinary Excursion

This past weekend, Ryan and I went to Palm Springs for a wedding.  We actually had one night away from our children, which was a miracle because we usually don’t.  So, we went to eat after the Wedding (yes, even though we were already given a full meal:-) because we really wanted to take advantage of our time together.

We found ourselves at AZUL on Palm Canyon Drive (the main drag) and had an incredible drink/tapas experience.  We got two food items, both were quite healthy and tasty.  The first, The Pan Asian Tuna Roll with Wasabi Sauce and Chili Oil was sooo good and healthy (although, we should all watch our portions of tuna and not overdo it.)  The other, Herb Goat Cheese, Portabella Mushroom and Tomato Tower in Pomegranate and Black Truffle Vinaigrette – this was seriously one of the best things I’ve EVER tasted.  And it was very healthy, especially for a late night snack.  We also got two fabulous cocktails and it was a great night out.

Needing to wake up in the morning for our long drive back to LA, we found ourselves at Koffi.  This place had some serious coffee drinks.  It’s hip and clean and felt very Palm Springs.  They have a very open lawn area in the back frequented by the colorful and well groomed locals.  Lots of dogs and hip/trendy folks.  Lors of FUN!!!

Check these two fabu venues out the next time you are there.  We hope to go back again soon.  Palm Springs is old world enjoyment with Hip and New Trends.

Until next time, Be Mindful,
