A red Vespa parked by the front door is your first clue. Behind it waits a deli case loaded with capicola, mortadella, provolone, and homemade Italian sausage. One side of the building is a full Italian market. The other side is a pizzeria turning out hand-tossed pies and sandwiches built on homemade rolls.

13 Changes In-N-Out Burger Needs To Make

I have a few beefs with In-N-Out Burger (bun intended), but I, like so many with ties to California, grew up eating here. Founded in Baldwin Park in 1948, the fast-food chain feels like it's woven into the fingerprint of the Golden State at this point. And with generations of my mom's side born and raised in Southern California, it should be no surprise that it was a family tradition to eat at In-N-Out when we were visiting our loved ones. With these meals marking our gatherings, reunions, and Disneyland trips with everybody, In-N-Out Burger has never just felt like some random fast-food joint to me. It feels personal.

The company has faced years of financial challenges, including declining customer traffic and rising food and labor costs. The Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection puts 61 remaining locations across the western United States up for sale. Which Outback Steakhouse locations in California recently closed?

The desert rock scene is legendary. Now a new generation wants its turn.

Palm Desert was named one of the top seven rock n’ roll cities in America by Blender magazine in 2003. But that was a bit of a misnomer. That “Palm Desert” scene featured bands from throughout the Coachella Valley. Its “godfather,” Mario Lalli Jr., grew up in Palm Springs and La Quinta. Its major bands, including the Joshua Homme-led Queens of the Stone Age and Eagles of Death Metal, emerged from nomadic generator-powered parties in the wilderness a decade earlier.

What's better than a good drink with an old friend or two? The holidays are the perfect time to head to that favorite neighborhood spot and catch up over a glass of your favorite adult (or NA) beverage, and we have a lot of opinions on the best places in the desert to do so. From laid-back breweries to a chic rooftop bar with views of the San Jacinto Mountains, here are The Desert Sun staff's seven favorite places to bring a group in the Coachella Valley this holiday season. Desert Beer Co. Details: 77-770 Country Club Drive, Suite D, Palm Desert; 442-227-4409, desertbeercompany.com There's something special about walking into a neighborhood brewery and feeling immediately welcome, even though you're not as familiar as the regulars holding court at the bar. That's how it always feels at Desert Beer Co., a brewery tucked into a strip mall in a residential area of Palm Desert that can feel bare bones compared to the stylish spots down the road on El Paseo, but has its own string-light-and-neon-Firebirds-hockey-sign charm. Like many breweries in town, its menu is packed with beverages brewed on-site (in some cases, mere feet from your seat), but along with
