這個週末，想吃個台式料理，利用Yelp的搜尋功能，找到了這家Monja餐廳，就在我平常採買的超市附近，到了餐廳門口才發現，這不是前陣子同事才介紹過的餐廳嗎？同事的評價還很不錯，挺讓人期待的。
I may try to find a new Taiwanese restaurant during the weekend. I found the Monja on the Yelp, which is near the 99 Ranch Market that I almost go every week. When I arrive the restaurant, I found my colleague just introduced me this one couple days ago.
看了菜單才知道，原來台灣艋舺有一家似乎很出名的燒肉店？看來這家Monja餐廳的特色料理便是燒肉飯，雖然在台灣時我不常吃燒肉飯，就在這兒嚐嚐吧！
After read the menu, I found the red grain pork is the most popular dish which is originated from a restaurant in Taiwan. Although I don't know which restaurant it is, it sounds good. So I would like to try it.
份量我覺得以美國標準來說算正常，沒有特別大份，不過燒肉給的挺多的，這在台灣應該看不到，燒肉外皮脆，內裡算軟，味道還不錯，只是沒有到非常棒，嚐過就可以，若有機會再來，可能就會試試其他料理了吧！
The red grain pork really taste good, the red part is crispy and the white part is soft. But the flavor is not so impressive for me to order it again if I come back some day.
另外加點了一道小菜─攪和攪和，雖然是台灣常見的素材，豬耳朵，豆干和海帶，不過台灣倒不會把三者合一，我只在這邊看到，帶著一點點的小辣，還不錯吃。
Jiao Ho Jiao Ho，it mixes the pig ear, dried bean curds and seaweed. This dish seems a special dish in LA or in US, because I didn't have a chance to try it in Taiwan. It's good to mix above three to have different taste and flavor in the month. It's nice!

這天在與家人聊天時，家人分享了一篇新聞，介紹當來到美國，有哪些相對特殊的漢堡連鎖店該去試試，用Google Maps查了一下，開車十分鐘左右，就有一家The Habit Burger Grill，這天午餐，就跑來嚐嚐！
This Sunday, my family share some news with me. It introduce some chain burger restaurant that I should try, not just McDonald's or Burger King. So I Google it, there is one The Habit Burger Grill near where I live. That's it, it will be my lunch for today.
既然我在In & Out都吃Double Double，在這兒當然就吃類似的Original Double Charburger來比較一下。
To have a clear idea, I order Original Double Charburger so I can compare it with In & Out.
跟In & Out相比，我喜歡這兒的薯條，因為我比較喜歡仍然帶有水分，稍微有點軟嫰，剛炸好的薯條，In & Out在大部分的時候，都炸得太乾了。
I like the fries from the Habit Burger Grill more. I like the fries with some water inside, a little soft but still hot. That's my favorite moment of the fries. It's too crispy at In & Out.
漢堡兩者都很好吃，只是以口感來說，我覺得In & Out更肉食性一點，Charburger比較嚐得到生菜的甜味，僅管如此，牛肉堡的香甜滋味仍然很濃厚，也可以滿足想吃肉的慾望，我覺得In & Out和The Habit Burger Grill都是很棒的餐廳，簡單，純粹，比起某些獨立的漢堡餐廳，太複雜，太多樣化，漢堡反而沒有這兩家的好吃。
Both burgers (In & Out and Habit Burger Grill burgers) are delicious. For me, the Charburger is easy to taste the sweet from cabbages. It has better percentage between to the beef and vegetables, maybe 50/50 or 60/40. The In & Out burger, is more like 80/20 or 90/10. It's meat, meat and meat. Even though, both are really, really good. Compare to some independent burger restaurants, these two are simple and pure, better than those which cannot focus.

棕櫚泉是這次租車旅程的終點，網路上的介紹，這兒是加州人在冬天時，避寒的選擇之一，這兒有天然溫泉，既然剛好選在冬天出遊，再加上一些購物行程，來這兒泡泡溫泉，放鬆恢復一下，自然是再好不過了！
Palm Springs is the last place for this trip. I found this place on Internet where people live in California may go for enjoy the hot springs in winter. Since now is almost the coldest time in a year, I believe this is a good place as an end of this trip.
也許因此，這兒的照片不多，待在這裡的三天兩夜，其實都懶懶的，只想舒服地待在泳池邊，好好享受這樣慵懶的生活，來到棕櫚泉，我建議可以多花點錢，入住這一間El Morocco Inn & Spa，僅管一個晚上要價180美金左右，已經跟我拿到特價的拉斯維加斯旅館一樣價格了。
I didn't take too many photos in this hotel, because I think I should come here to enjoy the lazy atmosphere and be relax. There are three characteristics of this hotel that I strongly recommend you to choose El Morocco Inn & Spa as the hotel you stay in Palm Springs although the cost is as much as I spent in Las Vegas, around USD $180 per night.
這兒有好吃有健康的早餐，新鮮現切的水果，很棒的貝果，一切自己動手，感覺又很美味了；且這兒的水，據說是世界上第二名的好水(雖然我不記得評測單位了)，而第一名則處於蠻荒地區，很難有機會享受。
The wonderful and healthy breakfast. The host will help to create your own bagels and you here also have the 2nd best water in the world according to host's description. The best place is somewhere almost no one can reach, which means here is the best that people can easily to have a try.
第二個優點則是每晚五點到六點，可以享受雞尾酒喝到飽的Happy Hour，且每天都不一樣。
The 2nd feature is the happy hour, 5:00 - 6:00 PM every night. You can enjoy the tasty cocktail, all you can drink.
最後一個則是這兒的設施非常棒，有泳池，SPA池，還有烤箱，讓人超滿足。
The last thing is the nice swimming pool & spa. And you can combine item 2 and the spa, that's so joyful, so satisfied to enjoy both.
或許這也是為何房間裡沒有浴缸，就好好享受晴空下，美麗的星光下的美好時光吧！
Maybe that's why there is no bathtub in the room, just enjoy it outside with the nice weather, sky and stars.
最後，附上幾張房間的照片。
At last, attach some photos of the room.

住在Williams的晚上，我隨意挑選了一間旅館，看起來就是台灣的民宿，因為恰好是聖誕節之後，相關的裝飾都還沒拆，閃閃發亮，而且就在櫃台的樓上，還有一棵裝飾好的聖誕樹，也算是讓我們稍微體會了一下在美國的聖誕節。
We stayed at Canyon Country Inn in Williams. This is the place we still can feel the atmosphere of Christmas. All the decorations are still on and there even has a Christmas Tree on the second floor of the front desk. Just like a regular house in US.
進了房間，的確走的是溫馨路線的裝潢，床上還擺放了一隻小熊，不過，房間就真的很小了，而且就在馬路邊的一樓，其實好像也幾乎沒有二樓的房間，旅館的房間數應該不多，稍稍有一點點不習慣，有時會聽到路人的聲音，時間稍晚之後就沒有影響了，這麼冷的天，不太有人會在外面活動。
When we get in the room, you can tell the host would like to show their warm and kindness from the bear on the bed and also the color they choose. But the space is really small. When we put in our luggages, it's not easy to open it to get our stuff.
旅館還有供應隔天的早餐，算是小型的自助吧，都放置在櫃台，可以拿取到自己房間內使用，只是房間小，有點不方便；若氣溫合適，在門廊上享用倒是很不錯。
The hotel provides breakfast at the front desk, and it's OK to take it back to the room. Since the room is small, I might recommend to eat outside if the weather is comfortable. The host prepare table and chairs on the porch.
