You may not yet know Palm Springs’s Málmal Café. That’s because when you keep company with one of America’s top spas, you sometimes get overlooked.
But this nourishing gem is a welcoming neighborhood eatery open to the public daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tucked inside The Spa at Séc-he, it has a dedicated entrance located on the corner of N. Calle Encilia and E. Tahquitz Canyon Way and is worth a visit.
Whether meeting friends or holding a business meeting, Malmal’s beautifully natural design sets the stage for a relaxing break in your day. But what makes this place really special are the locally sourced seasonal ingredients and unique menu offerings. From freshly made smoothies enhanced with turmeric and ginger to kale salads dressed in honey-citrus vinaigrette, from rice noodle tempeh spring rolls to their chicken salad sandwich with alfalfa sprouts, the emphasis is on food that honors body and mind. Enjoy hummus and avocado toast in the morning, or hummus and olive tapenade in the afternoon; gluten-free options are also available.
“Fresh, seasonal ingredients not only deliver superior flavor but also retain more nutrients, supporting guests’ health from the inside out,” says Executive Chef Brian Kenney. He adds that local sourcing also reduces environmental impact and fosters important community connections. “By aligning our cuisine with wellness principles, we nourish body, mind and spirit while celebrating the region’s unique flavors and sustainable agricultural practices.”
