Best Outdoor Date That Doesn't Require Hiking Boots
Chili dogs and a sunset at Gates Pass
Staff Pick
Grab your date and a couple of folding lawn chairs, and head over to Pat's Drive In (1202 W Niagara St.). Grab a family special (four spicy chili cheese dogs and a mammoth bag of fries) and a couple of drinks. Drive west on Speedway Boulevard to Gates Pass. Pop over to the other side, and park at one of the little pull-outs. Walk a few feet into the desert and set up your chairs facing west. Scarf down your chili dogs and enjoy the best sunset in the West. Afterward, stop at Oasis Fruit Cones (1002 W. St. Mary's Road) and pick up a yummy raspado for dessert.
