The LAB Anti-Mall

We had planned to arrive in Palm Springs very early to make the most of the weekend. Unfortunately our Alaska flight got canceled and we had to get a later flight to Santa Ana and drive from there. The good thing about it is that we got to stop at the LAB Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa for lunch, a very cute spot with shops and coffee shops.

We had lunch at Gypsy Den, a very cute coffee shop with quirky decor. My squash and avocado bowl wasn't that great though. It had more zucchini than squash, and not that much of either, and the romesco sauce was too hot. After lunch we got a donut at Good Town Doughnuts. Mine had nutella but they had a bunch of other fancier flavors.

I wouldn't mind stopping here longer next time I'm around. There seemed to be a lot of cute stores to check out.Read more
