Crawfish and Seafood Delivery to Palm Springs

Palm Springs is a hundred and twenty-three miles from our kitchen, and the drive down the 10 runs about two and a half hours. We will make it. We would also rather tell you now what that means than have you learn it at the door: a boiled tray that leaves Sun Valley hot does not reach the desert hot. Delivery to 92262 and 92264 costs $135, and the order has to clear $150 before we can send it.

What does work out here is the raw order. Live crawfish take the entire 10 without complaint and meet your pot in Deepwell or the Movie Colony exactly as they were in the tank, for five dollars a pound less than we charge to cook them. The other thing that works is scale: a house full of people for a weekend, one large order where the cost of the drive spreads across twenty plates instead of two. And if you are counting in cases rather than pounds, our wholesale page is the cheaper door.

East on the 10 the whole way — past the Banning pass, past the windmills, down into the Coachella Valley. A hundred and twenty-three miles, about two hours and twenty-eight minutes when nothing is in the way. Something often is. Sunday afternoons the westbound side is the dead one, but holiday weekends fill both directions, and summer heat on that stretch is a factor of its own for anything perishable. We plan runs like this by the day rather than by the hour, so name the date and we will tell you honestly what time we can be there.

Every tray is sealed at the pot and rides out in an insulated carrier, so the drive costs the boil as little heat as it can.

Not on the list? Call (747) 488-9441 — we usually say yes.

Your boil, your call

Pick a heat level, from No Heat to LA Inferno. Then salt: light, regular or extra. Every item on the menu is finished the way you asked, not the way the pot ran that night.

Palm Springs orders do not look like Valley orders. Downtown it is a rented house with eight people and a pool; in Racquet Club Estates and Deepwell it is a low mid-century place with a walled yard and a gate that opens from the inside. Nobody at this distance has a sudden Tuesday craving — these are planned tables, a birthday or a weekend somebody arranged weeks ago. There are two ZIPs, and the drive to both is the same drive.
