It's all over now in Australia until next summer, although most of it is on the other side of the country from us, so we're watching on TV anyway :-)<br />p.s. love the look of that veggie burger.

I also always had to get the nachos. I didn't care how much other food I was eating; nachos always happened. I'm so jealous, but so glad you got to try them out!<br /><br />I also prefer cheese-less pizza over Daiya. Nothing against Daiya - I just love vegetabley bread!House Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13916597521499439629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32492687.post-31692662520847328032014-03-17T11:17:24.293-07:002014-03-17T11:17:24.293-07:00Looks like a fun trip!

We love stopping to see the Cabazon dinos on desert trips as well.<br /><br />Unrelated to Palm Springs: A new vegan store opened in my neighborhood! It's a nice spot and the owners are really nice.

Not only was it a block & a half from my mate's flat, I was genuinely excited each & every time I went there. I ate there six times in eight days! From The Twister Wrap to the Bistro Steak Sandwich (with onion-ring-like fried shallots!) to the Chicken Run Ranch Burger, I simply cannot recommend it enough. Do NOT miss the Native Nachos by assuming you can get that anywhere — you cannot! — they are unique & gorgeous. There are many more 'natural' & healthy options, I just never had any. LOLz! It was a holiday. :-)<br /><br />As for Palm Greens, I had the *best* BLTA *ever* there — with avocado, that is. Handsome & friendly server, too. Don't pass it up! I was also intrigued by the breakfast offerings but never made it back there during my trip.<br /><br />See my holiday photos *and* food pics here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152203297591223.1073741853.656351222&type=1&l=abde1f58c1<br /><br />I'll be back there soon and will certainly check out Pizzavino and Mama Gina's (broccoli raab is absolutely my current addiction!).

I had no idea that Pizzavino had vegan options (actually I've never heard of them, but I will surely try it now!). And Mamma Gina's! I had a bad experience there years ago (long before I was a vegan) and have never been back. I might have to rethink that. And the La Quinta Hotel, two miles away...I had no idea that they had a vegan burger on the menu. <br /><br />I'm glad you loved Native Food. It's long been my favorite (of course, it is the only vegan restaurant in the desert, but still).<br /><br />I didn't get out to the tournament this year. I generally only go when someone gives me tickets (the nice thing about working in a country club...they buy season tickets, then, if they can't make it to a session will give them to their favorite fitness staff people :-) ).Debbie @ Live from La Quintahttp://livefromlaquinta.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32492687.post-51995586617284557042014-03-15T18:09:48.671-07:002014-03-15T18:09:48.671-07:00Looks like you all had a excellent time — actually...Looks like you all had a excellent time — actually any place that's sunny and dry sounds pretty great to me — tennis-wise and food-wise. You made some great choices for on-the-go eating, and the restaurants look pretty good, too. I've never been to Native Foods, but I have their cookbook. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I've never cooked anything from it, but one of these days I plan to correct that mistake. I feel the same way about Daiya as you do — I prefer pizza without it. I don't usually like to admit that because so many people really, really love it, and usually I just give in and eat it.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32492687.post-22601670126092101112014-03-15T17:09:17.385-07:002014-03-15T17:09:17.385-07:00Your trip to the desert and Indian Wells tennis to...Your trip to the desert and Indian Wells tennis tournament looks fantastic! Photos of the food are yummy. We are tennis fans also and a couple of years ago went at the spur of the moment to Indian Wells (no tickets in hand) and couldn't even get on the grounds as all the parking lots were sold out! After reading your blog we'll try for next year by planning in advance. Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04204671752553713640noreply@blogger.com
