The Hubs and I are going to Palm Springs this weekend for a little anniversary getaway, and I've been pretty excited about it... until we caught up on the DVR. Did you guys see the Modern Family episode about going to Palm Springs?
Needless to say, I don't really want to spend my anniversary weekend playing poker with Billy Dee Williams (although that would be pretty cool) or eating Cherries Jubilee. ;) I haven't been out to the Palm Springs area since my childhood, so maybe my memory of paradise amidst swaying palm trees and glitzy restaurants is a little smudged by time?
However, I have faith in you, Food Lushers. I know a lot of us hail from the Southern California area and many of you have probably vacationed in Palm Springs at some point, so tell me: where should we eat? (We'll have fun no matter what, but even a sub-par location can be dressed up with lots of great food, obviously.) It doesn't have to be a swanky find - greasy spoon gems are fine by me. Advise away, and thanks in advance!

I was in Palm Springs for a weekend getaway in November. We enjoyed the food and margaritas at Rio Azul Mexican Bar & Grill and breakfast at Palm Greens Cafe. Lulu on the main drag has good happy hour specials in the bar pretty much all the time, but the food was a little hit or miss (don't get the pizza!).

Three years ago, my husband and I had one of the best meals of our lives at the Cork Tree http://www.thecorktree.com/ The menu was what I think of at California cuisine. The combinations were unique and delicious.

The Ace Hotel probably has good food
