This is not a mega-plex; it also has a restaurant upstairs that serves good food at reasonable prices. My favorite theatre in Palm Springs. 2300 E. Baristo Rd.

Palm Springs is famous for its Midcentury Modern aesthetic. So don't miss this museum. The building alone is worth it. It has rotating exhibits, so check it out. Admission is $5.00/person. 300 S. Palm Canyon Dr.

There are two El Mirasols. This one is part of the Los Arboles Hotel, but you'd never know that. It has a great outdoor patio; it is smaller and quieter. Great margaritas. Access it on Indian Canyon, but the Hotel address is 266 E. Via Altamara

Welcome to the 1970s decor (or maybe the 1870s?) Huge menu. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Full bar. Old-fashioned, simple dishes. All really good and good value. 1800 N. Palm Canyon.

I've had fish tacos at several places in PS. These are the best. Order them a la carte for the best value. Try to be seated on the patio. They also offer generous-sized glasses of wine at reasonable prices. 241 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way.

Feels like a nicer version Denny's, with good food and service. Very clean. A lot of locals like it. Safe and reliable, but not a unique experience. 1030 E. Palm Canyon Dr.

We never miss eating here when we are in town. A traditional New York-styled deli in Palm Springs. I'm not crazy about the indoor atmosphere, but the patio is great. The food and service are great. A fun experience. You won't leave hungry. 401 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way

Great food, and a patio that is dog friendly. The menu has items for your pooch, too. It's stylish and fun. If you love dogs, don't miss it. 2080 N. Palm Canyon Dr.

Probably the best sushi I have ever had. It's small and noisy, though. But you can't go wrong with the food. Pricey but worth it for a special treat.

Good food, including traditional New York deli items. Good service at a location close to the house. At dinner, ask for the "Special Menu." Offers a great selection of fresh-baked treats to take home, too. 2665 E. Palm Canyon Dr.

Located in the old Smoke Tree Shopping Center (highly recommended for all your usual needs), Smoking' Burgers offers a great variety of burgers, sandwiches, salads, and sides. Great service. The inside is sports-bar like, and the patio has misters and it a great alternative. 1775 E. Palm Canyon Dr.

Miro's has been around a long time, and for good reason. The "modern European" food is delicious ($$$), the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is casual elegance. 1555 S. Palm Canyon Dr.

PS Air Bar is inside the Bouschet Wine Store. PS Air is decorated like the interior of an airplane, with tables made from airplane wings, and seats from planes, too. The walls are covered in airplane interior walls, including windows that have clever scenes (e.g., the flying nun, superman, King Kong, etc.). Visit drinks and bar food are good. Call in advance about its nightly entertainment and to make reservations. 760-327-7701. The wine store is also very nice with a great selection of wines and a small cafe. 611 S. Palm Canyon Dr.

You'll find everything you need here, including a large number of small, locally owned businesses as well as grocery, hardware, drug stores, and a U.S. Post Office. A couple of good restaurants near the Post Office, too. 1775 E. Palm Canyon

ALDI is big in Europe. Like a Trader Joe's. Great prices on produce. Interesting selection (though you can't get everything here). We always start here. 5200 Ramon Rd. It's also close to a Ross', Marshal's, Home Depot, Lowes, Smart & Final, and Walmart.

Sightseeing

The views from atop the mountain are spectacular. There are two dining options: a sit down with great views and decent enough food (that should be tried because, hey, how often are you going to ride a cable gondola to the top of a mountain in the desert?) On a hot day, it's 30-degrees cooler up there, too. You can sit and relax or hike along the trail. 1 Tram Way, Palm Springs

This is a great introduction to the desert. The gardens are more relevant that the zoo, IMHO. Palm Desert is a short drive from Palm Springs. It has a very nice shopping district in case the Living Desert isn't your cup of tea. 47-900 Portola Ave., Palm Desert
