GASTRONOMICO

It was such a surprise to find that the Gastrobus now had a restaurant in my neighborhood. I was pleasantly surprised by all their veggie side dishes, it was too hard to choose! I finally went with the brussels sprouts + bok choy and crispy yukon golds with garlic aioli. They were perfection. The red pepper flakes were a nice addition to the sprouts and the crispy potatoes, well crispy they were and happy I became.

HEATIN’ UP

There wasn’t any snow in the Coachella Valley, but the views were stunning. No complaining here!

WINTER IN THE DESERT

While we were sitting by the pool in Coachella we could see the white tops of mountains near by, so we of course had to go and explore. Not too far away in Idyllwild, we found white all around us! I felt like I was inside a Christmas card.

URTH

If you’re ever looking for a fresh, organic meal, head on over to Urth Cafe and they’ll take care of you! You might feel like you’ve headed in the wrong direction, but worry not Urth Cafe is there…nestled between old factory buildings, well new shiny lofts. Once you find it don’t be overwhelmed with the crowds or pushy waiters taking your order. Granted you might receive your food before your drinks, don’t worry its worth the wait. I had been craving a smoothie and once I finally had it, I was in heaven.

Some definite favorites, poached eggs on brioche with prosciutto, spinach & feta omelet, and the egg sandwich.
