LOVE Kings Fish House and the way they can serve large parties.  We continue to return here for family dinners and the great food.  Everything is good here.  Great food with friendly service.  Love the appetizers so we always order a variety.  My Mom loves Lobster so we treat here to a 1.5 pounder.  I enjoyed Steak and Lobster and it was delicious.  Always leave here satisfied and happy!

IN N' OUT BURGER - PALM SPRINGS, CA

IN N' OUT BURGER
PALM SPRINGS, CA

My Wife didn't want to leave California without eating at In N' Out one more time.  She never ever orders Burgers in Hawaii, but when there is an In N' Out she can eat one every day.  Our first visit a few days before in Long Beach was not satisfying to her as she thought the beef patty was smaller and lacked flavor.  This time she ordered a Double Double to get more of the beef flavor.  I went for a Single Burger and it tasted pretty much the same as the one in Long Beach.  After finishing the Double Double she concluded that In N' Out was not her favorite Burger anymore because the beef patties are smaller and thinner.  Don't know if this is true but it sure did seem so.  I still love these Burgers.

DEL TACO - PALM SPRINGS, CA

PALM SPRINGS, CA

Like eating after Wienerschnizel after over 30 or 40 years, I saw Del Taco while in Palm Springs and remembered eating there dozens of times when I was a kid.  Back in the day we could get 5 Tacos for $1.00.  Didn't remember the taste but did remember always going here for the value.  I ordered the Beef Taco and was surprised how good it was.  Much larger and with more meat and cheese than Taco Bell.  Thought it was great and would definitely return on my next visit to California.

We finally found some really good Mexican Food in La Quinta right in our hotel.  Adobe delivered on great flavors.  Loved the Taquitos and Enchiladas here and would love to return.  The Black Salsa was a first for me and it was really good.

My Wife and Daughter LOVE El Pollo Loco and always try to eat there when visiting California.  On this trip my Wife got her wish and I am glad she did.  This Chicken, the Sides and Sauces are delicious.  Loved making little Burritos with the Chicken, Beans, Rice, Corn, Guacamole and Salsa.  Everything was so fresh and flavorful.  Now my favorite too!

I hate to shop so when my Wife drags me to the Outlet Shops near Palm Springs I always request she drop me at a restaurant.  There are not too many restaurants at the Outlet Mall and the only one we found was closed.  I opted to sit outside at the Crazy Cup and enjoyed Taquitos dipped in Guacamole and Mexican Cheese.  These Taquitos are not cheap and cost $15 for five.  Taste was ok but not as good as the Taquitos I enjoy in San Diego at Roberto's or Juanitas Taco Shops.  Served its purpose thought keeping me occupied while Mama shopped.

LA QUINTA, CA

I have not been to a Wienerschnizel in probably over 40 years.  Back in the day, it was called Der Wienerschnizel and I used to eat here monthly with my Grandma who lived it a trailer in Lawndale, California.  After church, me and Grandma would enjoy a Mustard Dog together.  Fond memory indeed that makes me think of those incredible days with her that I now cherish.  
Well, when I drove by a Wienerschnizel in La Quinta, the memories came back and I just had to stop and enjoy a Mustard Dog in memory of my Grandma.  I sat and thought of her while enjoying a delicious Hot Dog.  Love you Grandma.
