Baja Med-Style Cuisine

In recent years, a group of chefs in Baja have created the concept of the BAJA MED cuisine: a blend of Mexican, Mediterranean and Oriental influences.  Their cuisine is based on fresh local produce from the region.  This concept has been driven by local chefs who are now being recognized all over the world.

International chefs such as Anthony Bourdain from the TV Show “No Reservations,” have started to visit Baja restaurants. He recently named Baja Cuisine as the “New Tuscany”:

“I was impressed with the do-it-yourself attitude of the chefs, they are cooking and innovating as they can for the Mexican customers, and parts of Baja, Mexico are starting to remind me of Tuscany”
