Charlie Trotter style
As if taunting us with one restaurant we can't afford isn't enough, now uber-chef Charlie Trotter is touting his restaurant at the One&Only Palmilla resort in Los Cabos, Mexico, in a new cookbook. The recipes showcase his light, crisp and fresh approach to traditional spa cuisine. But, sorry, Charlie: Though we'd love to join you for a culinary spring break, we're pinching our pennies these days. We can, however, pony up enough cash to give our taste buds a little R&R with spa cuisine on the cheap.
Naturally, our first stop is Trotter's To Go , a haven of fancy foodstuffs. Yeah, it's pricier than your average grocery store, but just perusing the shelves is enough to make you feel a little pampered. While there, you could pick up your copy of "Spa Cuisine" ($39.95) and get cracking on the Trotter recipes for grilled beef tenderloin with tomato-and-leek strewn quinoa and roasted garlic sauce.
The Beach Gourmet: Mrs. Winston’s Green Grocery: Salad Days. Naturally
Pure, natural, organic foods are rapidly gaining in popularity as people become more and more aware of possible hazards associated with food mass production and the effects of mega-farming upon the environment. On a corporate level, the Whole Foods chain (can I buy a half a melon there?) has led the way with all-natural produce and organic options, supporting many area family farms, but there are still a number of independent stores offering their own style of natural and organic presentations in a more localized and holistic way. One of Santa Monica’s most renowned stores of this style is the venerable Mrs. Winston’s Green Grocery that boasts two locations, one at 2901 Ocean Park Boulevard and the other at 2450 Colorado Avenue, and it was the first of these that I recently visited to pay homage to what must surely be one of the most comprehensively stocked salad bars in the county.

Jacky Runice
I have an easy barometer that measures how much my kids are enjoying a vacation. It's the "Willie-ometer" - the number of mentions of missing the dog (the aforementioned Willie) is directly proportional to the number of days we should remain out of town. As the vision of Willie's forlorn face comes into focus, the kids are becoming bored of being away. In a place like Tampa-St. Pete, Fla., however, I've found that poor old Willie is on the losing end of the formula. The area offers an ideal mix of active fun and relaxation; urban and beach attractions; small towns and downtowns; and a theme park and water park all wrapped up in both retro and brand-new packages. There are hundreds of lodging choices on this golden curve of the gulf. As vacation headquarters, we chose a comfortable family oasis on a stretch of white sand beach in St.
