Don’t want to leave the Tiny House? Sushi R91 will deliver deliciousness right to your door via Postmates. Or dine-in and enjoy their bar scene. The drivers usually need directions though, so just tell them, “Turn up Galaxie and go all the way up. All the way up.” And that usually does the trick.

Fast foodie? Can’t decide if you want a taco or a burger? Check out Baker’s and order the “twin kitchen” meal to get both! Baker’s is unique to the Inland Empire, so you won’t find it anywhere else. It’s just down the street 5 minutes away and it’s pretty good for fast food. I would say it’s better than In-n-Out, but I wouldn’t know since I avoid In-n-Out because of the long lines.
If you’re here in the summer, the seasonal pineapple shake is amazing!

City/town information
Visit nearby Palm Springs only 50 minutes away. Great restaurants such as 849, where the caramel chocolate cake is sinfully delicious. I personally enjoy and recommend a trip up the gondola or “aerial tramway” for a nice high altitude alpine hike, and in the winter, a mini snow day, with great views and scenery.
