How chefs in Los Cabos, Mexico are crafting menus that are unique and innovative
Los Cabos is shrugging off its reputation as the go-to party destination and instead embracing its status as an emerging leader in gastronomy.
I visited the Mexican destination on the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, where desert, sea, and mountains all meet, in October, which is what may be considered the off season. However, because it rains just 10 days a year, it meant the trip was filled with plentiful sunshine, gorgeous pink and orange-strewn sunsets, minimal tourists, and lots of incredible meals.
Having a dairy allergy, I was slightly worried going into the trip that my dietary restrictions would prove to be an issue, as cheese and other dairy products are commonly used ingredients in Mexico - like most other countries around the world. What I expected to be an issue at times, or at the very least a hindrance to restaurant staff, was seamlessly catered to without a second thought at every single restaurant I visited.
From the remarkable food at the hotel where I stayed, Nobu Los Cabos, to the memorable meals at lesser-known, hole-in-the-wall spots in the Mexican city, this is where, and what, to eat in Los Cabos.
Where to eat if you want fine dining
My first meal in Los Cabos was at the Mediterranean-inspired Muna Restaurant on the grounds of the stunning Nobu Los Cabos hotel.
