One of my favorite shops in Palm Springs is On The Mark Fine Foods & Provisions.  The locally owned store is a one of a kind gourmet food market and deli, featuring a range of unique boutique products such as:  craft beer and wine, artisan crafted cheese, nitrate-free meats, pates, small batch oils and vinegars, and more!  I actually just ate lunch there where I had one of their unique made to order deli sandwiches.  While they don't have any indoor seating, they have these great picnic tables just outside their front door where you can enjoy your sandwich while people watching on Palm Canyon Drive.  The fact that it was sunny and 78 degrees made the entire experience that much more enjoyable. 

On The Mark is now putting on events at their downtown Palm Springs store.  In April, for example, they are having two hour long wine tasting events where attendees can sample various wines and hors d'oevres in a fun and social setting.  All of their wines are organic or biodynamic and are paired with handcrafted hors d'oeuvres from products they sell at their shop. 

EVENT SCHEDULE:

Friday, March 29 @ 5:30
Friday, April 12 @ 5:30
Friday, April 26 @ 5:30

On The Mark is located at 777 N Palm Canyon Dr. in downtown Palm Springs.  Their number is 760-832-8892.  They would also love to cater an affair for your while you are at your Palm Springs vacation rental.

Like the native California fan palm, the Coachella Valley music scene springs from an oasis of creative spirit. It has spread far and wide from roots in midcentury crooning and desert rock to encompass a trove of musical identities, and April serves up a supreme sampling of that vast and varied sound as local talent and big names take the stages at storied venues across town. Here’s where you can check them out.

Palm Springs
This gem of a honky-tonk presents cover bands and local rockers playing original tunes sure to blow your socks off. Join the open jam session Sunday nights. (Anyone know any Blue Cheer?)
ACE HOTEL & SWIM CLUB (Pictured above)
