Go Thee To Baja! Baja Culinary Fest Oct 11-14
October 11-14 is the 2nd annual Baja California Culinary Fest! Thanks to the generosity of Chef Javier Plascencia, I was able to attend the 1st annual festival last year and with more experience, this year's is promising to be even better. There are many different events over the four days, from special dinners, a gastro tour of Tijuana, a visit to the Ramonetti cheese cellar, a festival in Rosarita, and many more.
From a whole leg carved on-site by Cheripan, Tijuana's premier Argentinean restaurant.
There was a great chocolate clam cocktail from Catavina (it's a type of Mexican clam, there's no chocolate in it!)
Naturally, all kinds of tacos from marlin queso taco to steak tacos to shrimp
We also found a great craft brewery there, called Ramuri. If you see their Lagrimas Negras or Bucefalo, be sure to try them!
Many tastes from Tepoznieves, Tijuana's best ice cream shop!
huitlacoche (corn smut) quesadilla
Caesar salad made on-site by Caesar's Restaurante, the restaurant where the salad was first invented
We were also pleasantly surprised to find good coffee here! This was from Das Cortez:
You may know all the restaurants in Los Angeles, but I bet you'll find many discoveries when you go to the Baja California Culinary Fest in Tijuana.
