Any day is a perfect day for a beautiful Desert Dinner Party. Sandra's house is decked out in an exotic palm tree motif, and her recipes are just as decadent. But she made them super simple and super delicious. Your guests are going to love this dinner party! First up, Sandra's Broccoli Slaw, which is light, crispy and perfect for a party. Then, her steamy Bourbon Baked Beans, which are both sweet and smoky. On to the main course: Chili-Rubbed Pork Chops With Warm Mango Salsa—hot, spicy and simple. The dessert, Cranberry Vanilla Can Cakes, is fun to make and just as fun to eat. Then it's cocktail time! Sandra has two tropical drinks: an Oasis Martini that's tart and sophisticated, and her Palm Springs Punch, which whisks you away to the calm of the desert.
We're headed to Los Angeles, where the weather is warm and the food is fantastic. From the famous French dip at Phillipe's to local favorite Roscoe's for their chicken and waffles, you'll see why we love LA! And, in a city of cars, it's no surprise we found some of the best tacos in a truck, and a crave-worthy chili dog that came straight from a train. Los Angeles is the home to Hollywood, so of course even the popcorn is perfect. We head to ArcLight Cinema where the main attraction isn't always the movie!
