AC Slater is a big fan of ‘Las Cansuelas’

The Greater Palm Springs Visitor and Convention Bureau paid what I can only assume was gobs of money to Mario Lopez to come out to the desert and shoot an internet video.  While, sadly, the video failed to resurrect any of the Saved by the Bell magic it easily could have, it does feature Lopez and his family eating at what Lopez says is a “really cool, family-owned Mexican restaurant called ‘Las Consuelas’ in Rancho Mirage. 

More of your tax dollars well spent!

Bonus: Here’s a camera guy following Mario around the Ritz for an uncomfortable amount of time along with Mario visiting a totally empty Gardens on El Paseo, which is actually pretty typical.
