Palm Springs' economy hinges on the volatility of seasonal tourism, which explains why so few new restaurants open there, and why some promising upstarts can quickly disappear. But new is fun, especially for Angelenos who travel frequently to the desert.
The Coachella Valley offers a remarkable culinary canvas. With Chef Estolano at the helm, the resort aims to highlight the agricultural richness of the region through its menus. This not only aligns with the current trend in the food and beverage industry towards ingredient-driven cuisine but also emphasizes sustainability and local sourcing.
Now that Smith's five-week residency at the Castro Theatre has just wrapped, they called on fans to recommend the best smashburger in the Bay, and the answer they received was Lovely's, which has locations in Cole Valley and in Oakland. In the video below, shot on top of the Castro marquee, we see Smith laying out a bevy of delights from Lovely's, including several hot dogs, chili cheese fries, and apparently every burger on the menu.

The sausage and chorizo are made in-house for the Pork Sausage Egg & Cheese, which also includes an over-medium egg, sharp cheddar, smoked paprika spread and roasted pepper chimichurri.
Going out to a restaurant every time you're craving fajitas can get expensive for some of us, and there may be times when you simply don't feel like leaving your house to get your fajita fix. Luckily, though, it's a lot easier than you may think to make fajitas at home.
"Where else are you gonna get so many choices with just a little Cash?" he asks during the spot, donning his signature black suit and wielding his guitar while a giant screen behind him flashes close-ups of bean and cheese burritos and hard-shell tacos.
A video on social media shows the dancing robot knocking over tableware, smashing plates, and sending chopsticks flying. An orange apron the robot is wearing reads "I'm good" in big letters across the front, perfectly adding to the chaotic scene. Staffers at the restaurant were forced to intervene.
A catering business is really more difficult to run because you might be really busy for a week and then another week you have very little. Restaurants tend to have more consistent hours and traffic. Catering doesn't always work that way.
Walking through the narrow bylanes of Mylapore neighbourhood at dusk is like watching a sepia-tinted postcard of Madras coming to life and gently reasserting itself over the Chennai of today. The 7th-century Kapaleeshwarar Temple, the fulcrum of commerce and culture, draws the devout into its timeless force field, and on nearby Pitchu Pillai Lane, a small crowd gathers around the Raghul Kuzhi Paniyaram street stall to buy kuzhi paniyarams: spongy orbs of pan-fried batter speckled with mustard seeds.
We were taught when to harvest agave, how to care for the soil, and how much we could ask of the forest. Today, that small-scale tradition exists alongside a global boom that has transformed mezcal into a major industry dominated by international brands. As mezcal has spread to bars around the world, so has its footprint on the land.
Our goal in starting this business was to build a reliable, sustainable company. We wanted to deliver high-quality frozen fruit products while creating long-term value for our partners and community. We are direct producers - from the farm to the table.
Oversized burritos are more of a north-of-the-border staple. In Mexico, even in northern regions where burritos originate, they're practical and proportionate. This is owed to the differences between traditional Mexican cuisine and its American-adapted counterpart.
In-N-Out protein style burgers are one of the best low carb fast food options that won't ruin your diet, and you should be able to request any burger on the menu in this style, from the iconic Double-Double to simple hamburgers and cheeseburgers. Replacing the bun with lettuce cuts down on calories, carbs, and a bit of fat.
The distinctive tip of Dairy Queen's soft serve - which is often covered in its chocolate or cherry dips - isn't just a coincidence; it's actually a trademarked feature of its ice cream that has been an integral part of the brand's identity since its beginnings in 1940.
Founded in 1894 by Milton Hershey, The Hershey Company owns many more brands than just its signature chocolate bar brand, and Heshey is the brand of chocolate most eaten in the United States. The chocolate and candy company began with selling a simple bar of milk chocolate, followed a few years later by foil-wrapped dollops of chocolates, and then almost two decades later came the debut of the peanut-studded Mr. Goodbar.
Zero Bond, the distinguished New York private members club founded by Scott Sartiano and Will Makris, is now officially open at Wynn Las Vegas (as of March 10). This new opening in Las Vegas marks the first major expansion of the membership community outside home base in NYC.
It's topped with salted caramel and little churro bites, and you can get it with vanilla, chocolate, or swirl ice cream. Based on the more than 500 responses to the post at the time of writing, opinions of the new sundae are mixed at best. It seems that for some, there is no replacement for the tried-and-true Costco churro from the days of yore.
My goal is that if Japanese people come to my restaurant, I don't want them to say, 'This is not Japanese food, this is American food.' So I am always keeping the quality to have a similar taste to Japanese taste.
East Coast oysters are known and loved over the world for the clean minerality and distinctive salinity, which is reflective of the cold Atlantic waters where they come from. Although Maine and Maryland get a lot of credit, oysters are present along the continent's entire eastern coast, as far north as Canada's Prince Edward Island all the way down to South Florida.
I took two bites and I had to spit it out, Reese says. I've never had that happen to me, ever, in the 70 years of my life. There was no taste. It was inedible. Reese took a closer look at the packaging, specifically the ingredients. He noticed that instead of milk chocolate, the mini hearts were covered in a chocolate-flavored coating that was mostly sugar and vegetable oil; the list of ingredients contained a disclaimer that the candy contained less than 2% cocoa.
As a mainstay at many of the restaurants in the Newport Beach, California area - where he lived from 1966 until his death in 1979 - the Duke was known to love a big steak. The steakhouse beloved by the old Hollywood star, Gulliver's, is located directly across from John Wayne Airport in Irvine.
The minerality is off the charts, exuberantly defining the wine after a barrel fermentation of nine months on the lees in 85% American and 15% French oak. This unicorn wine demonstrates exceptional quality and craftsmanship in its production and flavor profile.
These are just a few of the 20-plus new items coming to Taco Bell's menu in 2026, which the chain unveiled during its annual superfan convention Live Más Live on March 3. After more surprising celebrity cameos than I could count - Lil Jon! Demi Lovato! Jason Sudeikis! - everyone got a chance to try some of the coming dishes.
We are not moving away from making plant-based meat. This is a strategic expansion of our portfolio into additional protein categories. We start at the farm with clean and simple, non-GMO ingredients like yellow peas, red lentils and faba beans. We love clean protein and fiber.
