One of the great spots we discovered in Indian Wells was this restaurant. It had all that we were looking for: high rating, great location (near our hotel), great view, and Happy Hour! It is located in the Golf Resort, so it was pretty fancy. Once we walked in to the building, there is a […]

Agave Sunset
During my visit to Palm Springs area, I stayed at beautiful Hyatt Regency in Indian Wells. We tried one of the restaurants in the hotel, Lantana (you can read about it here: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/lantana/). When we were looking for an early light dinner, we decided to try another restaurant called Agave Sunset. The entrance is located […]
Lantana
While I was visiting Palm Springs area in CA, I visited Lantana for breakfast. It is located inside the Hyatt Regency in Indian Wells, on their ground level. They had a large indoor space and also a very nice outdoor seating. The indoor dining area was pretty big, enough to seat great number of people […]
Dogpatch Bakehouse & Caffè
Finding a good food at any airport is always a challenge. Sometimes, you get lucky, but most of the time, you are not getting much of quality or tasty food. Most of us have learned to “settle” for whatever is available at the airport…(you can read my other experiences on airport food at: http://www.foodlovergirl.com/custom-burger-newark-airport/ and http://www.foodlovergirl.com/wolfgang-puck-express/). Here […]
Wine Country Chocolate
When someone mentions “Sonoma Valley,” most people will think wine tasting. Which is great, but what can be even better than wine tasting? Wine infused chocolate tasting! As we were walking through Sonoma Plaza when we spotted a lovely sign that said “Chocolate Tasting.” We got very excited and walked straight over to the store. […]
Katana-ya
Ramen is one of the best Japanese comfort food (to me), you can have it in so many different style, different broth, toppings, etc., and is especially good during the cold months. But, finding a good ramen restaurant is another story. While we were in SF, we found this place called Katana-ya where they served […]
Cline Family Cellars
The wonderful winery, Jacuzzi Family Vinyards (http://www.foodlovergirl.com/jacuzzi-family-vineyards/) goes way back in the history. And from that history, another great winery was born, right across the street from Jacuzzi Vinyard, called Cline Cellars. The Founder was the grandson of one of the Jacuzzi brothers, who taught him the magic of wine making. I really love that […]
Basque Boulangerie Café
It is always good to have a nice cafe in a neighborhood, where the locals can gather and relax while enjoying each other’s company. And if the cafe has really good coffee or sweets, or both, then it will be even better. While we were in Sonoma Valley, we found this cafe with lots of […]

Lots of options, lots of different kind of wines, lots of new experience… It certainly is a fun adventure! We visited one of […]
