Breakfast at Sherman’s Deli & Bakery was a slightly disappointing start to our day. The waitress sold us on the breakfast special of 2 french toast, 2 slices of bacon, and 2 eggs for $5.95, but unfortunately was cooked in so much butter we were unable to finish our plates.
A quick stop in the food court at Cabazon Premium Outlets (yes, of course there’s more shopping involved!) for some Jody Maroni’s Sausage Kingdom for a Coney Island dog combo gives our feet and arms a rest. 
Mission Viejo was our resting place for the day. Word of mouth (and Google), leads us to Nirvana Grille for dinner, where our waitress re-assures us that there is not much good food offered in the area, and that we are in the right place! Their $40, 3 course prix fixe dinner does not disappoint. First course was a delicious grilled romaine lettuce served with corn, caramelized red onions, tomatoes, basil, goat cheese, and pine nut with house balsamic dijon vinaigrette. Next was a pistachio crusted sea bass with beurre blanc, asparagus, and leek mashed potatoes. The fish was incredibly fresh and cooked to perfection. The dessert was not as impressive as I later discovered their dark chocolate molten bundt cake was not prepared in house, and that I should have opted for the baked Fuji apple pie. Luckily my husband was willing to share
