5 Best Restaurants in San Bernardino, California You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

San Bernardino, California — a city where the mountains stand sentinel and the sun paints the valley in gold, where the hum of trains and the laughter of families echo through neighborhoods stitched together by memory and migration. Here, palm trees sway beside historic bungalows, and the scent of carne asada mingles with orange blossoms on the breeze. It’s a place where generations gather for backyard barbecues, where newcomers are welcomed with a plate and a story, and where every block hums with the rhythm of community.

Big Bear Alpine Zoo to greet the season with shimmer (and snuggly sweaters)

THE BOBCATS AND WOLVES... and mountain lions and little critters that call Big Bear's well-known animal park home rock cozy coats made for chillier nights. But the humans calling upon the Big Bear Alpine Zoo do need to wear a jacket or a sweater or both, plus a scarf and mittens, before heading out into the starlit property to soak in the seasonal shimmer and glow. That glow comes from millions of bulbs and decorations, the entrancing sights appear at the zoo for a few weeks each November and December. Oh yes, and a few January dates, too: It's Wild Lights, an after-dark experience summoning the enchantment over several nights, starting Nov. 13, 2026. There are, in fact, two million lights to admire, and themed areas that fit the festive spirit of moment, including the wholesome "Classic Christmas" section. Other spots include "Rudolph's Storybook Adventure" and "The Alpine Night Sky," which delights in the density of stars that appear over low-lit Big Bear on any given evening. Visit Big Bear is behind Wild Lights, and the beneficiaries of the multi-week event are Care for Big Bear and the zoo, a place that gives "... injured, orphaned, and imprinted wild animals a 2nd chance."

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.
