The Purple Room Palm Springs CA I looked forward to this evening since planning our trip. The Purple Room goes back to the heyday of the Rat Pack in the 1950s and 1960s. This has a real Frank Sinatra vibe to it. First dinner, then a show. Dinner with friends. Filet with asparagus and potato cake. Braised short ribs with roasted carrots. Our show tonight – Billy Stritch and a jazz trio. All three were very talented! Billy Stritch, a long time confidant of Liza Minelli.
